    “Today, I slept in until 10,
    Cleaned every dish I own,
    Fought with the bank,
    Took care of paperwork.
    You and I might have different definitions of adulthood.
    I don’t work for salary, I didn’t graduate from college,
    But I don’t speak for others anymore,
    And I don’t regret anything I can’t genuinely apologize for.
    And my mother is proud of me.
    I burnt down a house of depression,
    I painted over murals of greyscale,
    And it was hard to rewrite my life into one I wanted to live
    But today, I want to live.
    I didn’t salivate over sharp knives,
    Or envy the boy who tossed himself off the Brooklyn bridge.
    I just cleaned my bathroom,
    did the laundry,
    called my brother.
    Told him, “it was a good day.”

    Cormac McCarthy
    “The boy who rode on slightly before him sat a horse not only as if he'd been born to it which he was but as if were he begot by malice or mischance into some queer land where horses never were he would have found them anyway. Would have known that there was something missing for the world to be right or he right in it and would have set forth to wander wherever it was needed for as long as it took until he came upon one and he would have known that that was what he sought and it would have been.”
    Cormac McCarthy, All the Pretty Horses
