These accursed Fridays leave us only time to ponder the potentials, a practice which can lead down dark paths without evidence or physicality to go on.
Perhaps there is no better time for grief than today. Tomorrow, we walk forwards and find the truth. No matter how ugly, no matter how painful, we find it.
