The more you get past pain, the more it goes from coal to diamond.
perseverance motivation writing
Writing is grunt work - you need to have self-motivation, perseverance, and faith... talent is the smallest part of it.
morning thinking ideas
The right idea is the one you can't stop thinking about; the one that's in your head first thing in the morning.
games long looks
Nobody wants to admit to this, but bad things will keep on happening. Maybe that's beause it's all a chain, and a long time ago someone did the first bad thing, and that led someone else to do another bad thing, and so on. You know, like that game where you whisper a sentence into someone's ear, and that person whispers it to someone else, and it all comes out wrong in the end. But then again, maybe bad things happen because it's the only way we can keep remembering what good is supposed to look like.

We all know that a sky with clouds in it is much more interesting than one that doesn’t have any.
dream fall world
I wondered about the explorers who'd sailed their ships to the end of the world. How terrified they must have been when they risked falling over the edge; how amazed to discover, instead, places they had seen only in their dreams.
dad regret car
My dad used to say that living with regrets was like driving a car that only moved in reverse.
loss dialect different
Was there a language of loss? Did everyone who suffered speak a different dialect?
