Finding what you're looking for is the easy part. Getting it is harder. Holding onto it is nigh impossible.
We don't have absolute power over our lives, and we never will. Life is chaotic and nebulous. Any small thing can change us entirely. Something as random and improbable as a flash of lightning ending our existence or that of someone we depend on or care for.

Conviction doesn't mean a sure path. Nothing can stop you, but yourself. You may find yourself a greater adversary than you'd think. It isn't easy. That's what makes it important. The lack of control, the greater potential for good than evil, the constant temptations and struggles, the pressures of a world that won't agree with you... Jack, -everything- is against you. This is why what you do, and what you believe, are special. It's what makes it poignant. It's the very point of it.
