"There was another life that I might have had, but I am having this one."
So spoke Kazuo Ishiguro. A writer I'm so taken by that I pick fights with senior citizens in book club and pen late night letters to him in the hopes of one day receiving a response.
Everyone needs a hero. I have my own in a selfless, supportive finance (see posts of old re: man I love most), but I also need someone to come out on top in the pages I read. I need someone to mimic and inspire. So I'll keep reading in the hopes of sooner writing, after which I'll toast to Ishiguro-san, and maybe someday, he to me.
