The solid oppression of winter can only end when the land becomes flooded with light — and if we willingly give ourselves over to that light. But sometimes, things prevent us from accepting it, until we find ourselves stranded.
Or perhaps we need only bow our heads to greater fate, and motivate our bones toward the glowing ember of hope..

Things are rarely straight lines in nature — in fact, nature seems to prefer curves. Curves, however, are among the hardest things to define in mathematics, while lines are simple. The gap between reality and mathematics never felt larger..

Can a contradiction really exist?
Even if self-conflict is dismissed as semantic, perhaps it might have an edge of truth. Perhaps it sees truth from its vantage point. Perhaps, from a higher dimension of existence, it is the real thing, and you, the caustic, skeptical observer, you are the contradiction, the edge of existence.
