Your story


"Your story, it's not boring and ordinary, by the way. We just get the one life you know. Just one. You can't live someone else's or think it's more important just because it's more dramatic. What happens matters, maybe only to us, but it matters."
- a bit of dialogue from the film "Ghost Town".

Long ago I read a comment in a review of a book that was a "minor life" - biography of a lesser-known poet. The reviewer said, "Of course, in the aspect of eternity, no life is minor."
