Doug's Law: "You can have information or you can have a life, but you can't have both." — Douglas Coupland

Our curse as humans is that we are trapped in time; our curse is that we are forced to interpret life as a series of events — a story — and when we can’t figure out what our particular story is, we feel lost somehow.

We have to count. I want to be part of history. I want a Wikipedia page. I want Google hits. I don’t want to be just a living organism that comes and goes and leaves no trace on this planet.

Life need not be a story, but it does need to be an adventure.
