Friendship, companionship: it so often defied logic, so often eluded the deserving, so often settled itself on the odd, the bad, the peculiar, the damaged.
Wasn’t friendship its own miracle, the finding of another person who made the entire lonely world seem somehow less lonely?
Life was elsewhere, and it was frightening and vast and mountainous and uncomfortable.

What he knew, he knew from books, and books lied, they made things prettier.
Sometimes I would have to take my glasses off simply so the world would smudge and recede for a moment and cease to seem so relentlessly present tense.
