“Winter evenings, I’m glad to ease my mind from the sun.”

“Winter evenings, I’m glad to ease my mind from the sun.”
(From another Waypoint article here, about the poet Anya Silver)
“It is a game about discovery where you discover nothing at all; it is a game about finding things, but you find nothing; in the end, it is a game about accepting the limits of yourself and of humans.”
I think this can actually be incredibly cathartic at times. Yes, life is hard, and sometimes there are no easy answers, and you can not achieve your dreams. Reminds me a bit of the Rolling Stones song; you can’t always get what you want.
Sometimes settling into the “here we are and that’s ok and I may never get what I want, but I can exist here and be ok with that”.
