Open your eyes and let the book search in you for its story. Be patient and tolerate its distracted or harrowing gaze. If the book doesn’t find what it needs it will be disappointed, despairing, bitter, will close its covers and turn away. Do not take this as a personal failure. The book is searching for its one true story and nothing else will do, it notices you hardly if at all. Do not avoid books in the future, though it's wise to allow yourself time to recover. When a book finds its story, the story wakes, opens its many thousand eyes, its many hundred wings and takes flight, and you become what you have always known you could be, pure sky to that flying.
