After the loss, what remains?

( Stuff I actually think )

"When you're young, the future seems limitless, packed with inifinate prospects and choices, B-plans and C-plans in every direction.  It was not so scary to lose back then.  Recklessness is a form of virtue when you're first inventing your life.  You stand the chance - if you go for broke - of unearthing an authentic [...]
