It's a lot of things. I think people are resilient. And I mean, I know people who've lost everything multiple times, right? With the fires in Santa Barbara, the landslides, we lost 24 people in the landslides a few years. Yeah, it's terrible. One of my wife's students and his father, it tore the community up. I have friends who've had their houses burned down. Not everybody makes it.

It's a little flowery, but it's called The Smell of Rain on Dust. It's about grieving. And he talks about how in the Mayan language, grief and praise are the same word. Because everything changes, that grief is praising what you love and have lost. Praise is grieving what you love and will lose. And that understanding that you don't grieve what you don't love, that... That's profound. Yeah.
