"Whoa, Sar! What did that guitar ever do to you?"

"...nothing."

"Then stop strumming so violently."

"..."

"How did your gig go?"

"It was okay."

"What happened?"

"My singing time was cut in half."

"Why?"

"Apparently, I'm not 'experienced' enough."

"..."

"..."

"Permanence, perseverance and persistence in spite of all obstacles, discouragements, and impossibilities: It is this that in all things distinguishes the strong soul from the weak."

"...who was that by?"

"Thomas Carlyle."

"..."

"So stay strong, it'll get better."

"Did you memorize that quote?"

"Yeah, back in high school I had an assignment about it or whatever. And for some reason it stuck. It inspires me in a way."

"...thanks."

"..."

"I means a lot, seriously."

"Anytime, Sar."
