It’s dark because you are trying too hard. Lightly child, lightly. Learn
to do everything lightly. Yes, feel lightly even though you’re feeling deeply.
Just lightly let things happen and lightly cope with them. I was so
preposterously serious in those days… Lightly, lightly – it’s the best advice
ever given me…So throw away your baggage and go forward. There are quicksands
all about you, sucking at your feet, trying to suck you down into fear and
self-pity and despair. That’s why you must walk so lightly. Lightly my darling…
-- Aldous Huxley, Island
