""Sibling rivalry is a critical problem that reflects the basic human condition: it is not that children are vicious, selfish, or domineering. It is that they so openly express man’s tragic destiny: he must desperately justify himself as an object of primary value in the universe; he must stand out, be a hero, make the biggest possible contribution to world life, show that he counts more than anything or anyone else."" — Sep 02, 2025 04:01PM

""I had always been taught that everything that happened was a part of God’s plan. If there was a question you couldn’t answer within your faith, then you just weren’t meant to understand it. And that simple view had sufficed. Until now. I still believe in you, God, I remember thinking. But I do not understand this. I will never understand this."" — Sep 02, 2025 04:37PM

""Setting boundaries requires us to be vulnerable — which is uncomfortable. To draw circles of empowerment around ourselves, and to respect the circles other people draw around themselves, we need to find a way through the feely stuff, to live in the deep end of life. It's here we get to explore life in its entirety, rather than avoiding it for the illusion of comfort in the shallow end."" — Sep 02, 2025 04:47PM

“An image of Sydney's face appeared in my mind's eye, calm and lovely.
I believe in you.
My anxiety faded.
I took a deep breath and met the gazes of all those watching me in the room.

I was Adrian Ivashkov.
And I was about to kick some ass.”

“Captain?"
"Yeah?"
"Do you think it was destiny that brought us together?"
He squinted and, after a thoughtful moment, shook his head. "No. I'm pretty sure it was Cinder.”
