I encountered a quote by Anais Nin today that seemed to say everything I needed to hear, very specifically and precisely at this moment. “I postpone death by living,, by suffering, by error, by risking, by giving, by losing.”

I looked at every single one of those words and took them in like food and oxygen. I’m not sure that “postponing death” is a great goal of mine, but the rest of the concepts I feel like I could write a lifetime treatise on, and in that I found great comfort.
