Boethius, an Anglo-Saxon early Christian, wrote a wonderful book in Latin: THE CONSOLATION OF PHILOSOPHY. He talked about the wheel of fortune. We travel along the wheel. Sometimes we get wonderful experiences, sometimes not.

Consolation, this is your son's time to experience this pure joy and freedom. And he had the maturity to create it for himself.

We need all the joy we can garner for our rainy days.
