<|endoftext|>inspiration: If I've learned one lesson from all that's happened to me, it's that there is no such thing as the biggest mistake of your existence. There's no such thing as ruining your life. Life's a pretty resilient thing, it turns out.<|endoftext|>

13,409
<|endoftext|>love: It scares me how hard it is to remember life before you. I can't even make the comparisons anymore, because my memories of that time have all the depth of a photograph. It seems foolish to play games of better and worse. It's simply a matter of is and is no longer.<|endoftext|>

<|endoftext|>philosophy: I hope it is not necessary for me to stress the platonic nature of our relationship- not platonic in the purest sense, there was no philosophical discourse, but we certainly didn't fuck, which is usually what people mean by platonic; which I bet would really piss Plato off, that for all his thinking and chatting his name has become an adjective for describing sexless trysts.<|endoftext|>

13,440
<|endoftext|>life: I walked down the hall and saw that [she] was sitting on the floor next to a chair. This is always a bad sign.

13,461
