365 Days of Gratitude: Day 128

Wings. Grateful for the cliff, the jump, the wings (over and over again). And Kurt Vonnegut (again). Update: Thanks to some impressive sleuthing from a fan of this project, it turns out that Ray Bradbury was the original source of this quote, saying, “You’ve got to jump off the cliff all the time and build your wings on the way down.” See the Quote Investigator for more details. As I am drawn to the particular word use of Kurt Vonnegut (and his choice to say “continually” which is actually a significant addition to the quote, in my opinion) I’m going to leave it as is.
