We need to tell the story of our life to someone...
Pretty much always.

"Other events—the ones you can’t digest—they poison you. Those worst parts of your life, those moments you can’t talk about, they rot you from the inside out... But the stories that you can digest, that you can tell—you can take control of those past moments. You can shape them, craft them. Master them. And use them to your own good. Those are stories as important as food. Those are stories you can use to make people laugh or cry or sick. Or scared. To make people feel the way you felt. To help exhaust that past moment for them and for you. Until that moment is dead. Consumed. Digested. Absorbed."
"All I know is, if you don't figure out this something, you'll just stay ordinary, and it doesn't matter if its a work of art or a taco, or a pair of socks! Just create something new, and there it is, and it's you, out in the world, outside of you. And you can look at it, or hear it, or read it, or feel it. And you know a little more about... you... a little bit more than anyone else does... Does that make any sense at all?"
