Especially after the year that we’ve had, I’m a bit burnt out on constant attempts to understand. But fuck me, will I continue to keep trying. The capacity seems far past human—as we’re constricted by time. “If you could see your whole life from start to finish, would you change things?” “Maybe I’d say what I felt more often.”
