world and boundaries

without comments

“We cannot pretend that the world begins and ends at the boundaries we might make for it. Sometimes, we acknowledge that it extends itself into our lives in ways that we might prefer it wouldn’t, and we must face up to the challenges it offers.” – Terry Brooks, The Scions of Shannara.
