scary
I tried to fall asleep last night but all I could think about was work. And then I realized that I couldn't fall asleep because i was thinking about work. And I wondered if I would ever dream again.

luck
The elevators in the building where I work are notoriously ancient, noisy, slow and unpredictable. Complete strangers riding in the same elevator routinely remark on the elevator's temperment. Today, as soon as I pressed the elevator call button to go downstairs, one appeared. An old Indian man boarded it with me. "What luck," I said, "we got an elevator right away." The man replied seriously, "We should play Lotto."
On the way back to my office, I got on an elevator that seemed to be barely eking its way skyward. The other man in the car commented on this. "Are we even moving?" he said. It stopped on random floors where no one was waiting at all. I waited for it to stop on my floor, the 9th. But it didn't. It paused momentarily, but the doors didn't open. It eked its way toward floor 10 instead. I got off and took the stairs back down.
The stairs, by the way, are the maintenance stairs. ("You can see the guts of the building," Maxie once said about them). As I started down, the man called out, "Good luck!"

quote
Keep walking, though there's no place to get to.
Don't try to see through the distances. That's not
for human beings.
Move within, but don't move the way fear makes
you move.
Today, like every other day, we wake up empty and
frightened.
Don't open the door to the study
and begin reading. Take down a musical
instrument.
Let the beauty we love be what we do.
There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the
ground.
-- Rumi, Persian mystic
