9.15.25 - THE OPEN ROAD

I’m in the last quarter of the Jean Giono book The Open Road. It reminds me of Jean Genet’s A Thief’s Journal, but more good-natured and laid back, no hostility.

Imaginer, c’est choisir.

To imagine is to choose.

Jean Giono

Remember, all of (human) happiness is in the little valleys. Tiny little ones. Small enough to call from one side to the other.
