Quote_1.png
Stephen King
"He didn't know if that was really true or not, but he discovered something which was tremendously liberating: he didn't care. He was very tired of thinking and thinking and still not knowing. He was also tired of being frightened, like a man who has entered a cave on a lark and now begins to suspect he is lost. Stop thinking about it, then. That's the solution."

I suggest you follow Queen Victoria's advice - close your eyes and think of strawberry shortcake."
