   • 2011, Key, Rewrite:

     At some point, I realized I had nothing. I thought my pockets were full of happiness, but it turned out they were empty. That only made sense; I made no effort to fill them with anything. But even that fact eluded me. I led an aimless, hollow life without substance. And one day, suddenly, it felt like I'd wasted a great deal of time.
