“I’m convinced that, usually, life is very long. Long enough that, knowing that I’m going to have to live with the decisions I’ve made for the rest of my life prevents me from doing some impulsive, enjoyable things. But this is with the knowledge that it could be over at any moment. So how to walk the line between living every day to the fullest as though it could be the last and at the same time living responsibly and dependably? Who knows. I do know this: some of the most important aspects of life are those that take a lifetime to build. And perhaps the impulsive thing that we should do every day is love. Without being able to answer these questions directly, Daytripper tries to hit on them from the periphery and ends up being a beautiful meditation . . .”—Stephen, Ravenna Third Place, Seattle.
