n. the desire to care less about things — to loosen your grip on your life, to stop glancing behind you every few steps, afraid that someone will snatch it from you before you reach the end zone — rather to hold your life loosely and playfully, like a volleyball, keeping it in the air, with only quick fleeting interventions, bouncing freely in the hands of trusted friends, always in play.

God, I'm down here on my knees!   Is it getting it wrong, or I just see it differently than the conforming contortionist's?

This storm is you. Something inside you. So all you can do is give in to it, step right inside the storm…and walk through it, step by step. There’s no sun there, no moon, no sense of time. Just fine white sand swirling up the sky like pulverized bones.
