“His zeal for order might amuse them. His penchant for postseason failure might deflate them. But they expect him back, season after season, on that stage that has been so cruel to him. He knows no other way. October revolves around him. Perhaps this one will be different.”

Oh this passing hits hard on so many levels. Chadwick Boseman will always be the perfect T’Challa.

why is it that whenever I am disillusioned with the world I go back to the epic of Gilgamesh

“It is the story of their becoming human together.”

This is it. This is the oldest written literary work that we know of, and it’s a story of becoming human together.

This is a story about love, and it’s a story about death, and we told this story thousands of years ago, THOUSANDS of years. We have always, always, always been wrestling with this profoundly beautiful existence and with knowing one another, while knowing that we all will die and be forgotten.

We become human by loving, but we also become human by knowing death.

And I’m just sitting here touching other human beings, another human experience, from across millennia, feeling a bit more human too through it, and I am trying very hard not to cry.
