There's a song Only The Wind by Ólafur Arnolds. When I listen to it, I feel somehow like I'm soaring and I'm falling all at the same time. I can't decide if I'm laughing or if I'm crying. Maybe it's both together. All I find myself thinking is how human I am, we all are, and how complicated that is. 
This book is that song in written form. And it is etched in my bones now.
