Like the fear of destruction keeps one from saying what they want to say - when, in actuality, by not saying it, things get worse. Because it's the entropy, the leak that doesn't get fixed.

At midlife we decide, consciously or unconsciously, the path of the victim or the path of the phoenix when it is rising up at last.
