A good story.

Donal Miller's words are getting me through my own tedious writing of a final paper on a quiet Saturday spent in Jenks Library.

“I feel written. My skin feels written, and my desires feel written. You can call it God or a conscience, or you can dismiss it as that intuitive knowing we all have as human beings, as living storytellers; but there is a knowing I feel that guides me toward better stories, toward being a better character. I believe there is a writer outside ourselves, plotting a better story for us, interacting with us, even, and whispering a better story into our consciousness.” from A Million Miles in a Thousand Years
