What Can Still Happen

Every time something really really bad happens, I spend a few moments considering quitting. Just kind of, everything.

Never physical.

I realize these two things may seem non sequitur, but I promise they arn't. It always astonishes me what people are capable of after horrible things happen to them. Amazing things can always happen. It can be so hard to remember that.
