Passed years seem safe ones, vanquished ones, while the future lives in a cloud, formidable from a distance. ↗

I had been eagerly waiting just such a disaster. Storms, wolves, snakebite, floods-these are the occasions to find out how your father sees you, how strong and necessary he thinks you are. ↗
