She keeps looking for patterns, but the world just happens

" As Harold took a bite of the Bavarian sugar cookie, he finally felt that everything was going to be okay.

Sometimes, when we lose ourselves in fear and despair, in routine and constancy, in hopelessness and tragedy...there are Bavarian sugar cookies.

And, fortunately, when there aren't any cookies, we can still find reassurance in a familiar hand on our skin.

Or a kind and loving gesture.

Or a subtle encouragement.

Or a loving embrace.

Or an offer of comfort.

Not to mention hospital gurneys, and nose plugs, and uneaten Danish, and soft-spoken secrets, and Fender Stratocasters

And maybe the occasional piece of fiction."

From the 2006 film, Stranger than Fiction.


This made my day.
