It is interesting to note how rare stories of redemption are in practice, yet how common they are in thought. That is to say, the mind inclined toward dreaming tends to imagine such an arc for its life, without reflecting on whether it would be desirable or, rather, whether it has any practical benefit. Because a dream, even if it does not come true, still exerts an influence. A whole life spent waiting for this great moment! And, at the same time, a whole life lost in dreaming… There are better plots; more modest ones. But such ambiguity highlights the complexity of human psychology. Visualization is necessary; it guides the creative act. But one must ground it and ground oneself while living, not allowing oneself to get lost in thin air. What remains, then, is everyday reality, always less grand than one would like, but in which one can write a real story.
