046: things I learned from an 11-hour shift

You cannot judge time. You cannot
bend it, extend it, break
it, escape it. Nothing about it is conducive
to human efforts.
Nothing.

-

A lot can happen
in five minutes. You can run
offstage and re-emerge
entirely different. Fifty
people can come and go without you
knowing. Your
insides can collapse.
Or rebuild.

-

Eyes communicate everything. (At
least…I live as
if they do.)

-

Whoever said people become
beautiful when they
smile was…right.

-

To be kept
from the sky is to be
kept from truth.

-

Reveal your pain and people
ask. Cover
it up and resentment
infects every wound
you have.
