人生中有一种特别的孤独，并不发生在事情出错的当下，而是发生在很多年以后，当我们开始反复想象：如果那件事没有发生，我的人生会不会完全不同。人的想象力在面对“另一种人生”时，总是格外慷慨。它会自动删去风险与挫折，只保留所有美好的可能性。于是，那条没有走过的路开始散发出一种近乎完美的光芒。

There is a particular kind of loneliness that arrives not in the moment something goes wrong, but years later, when we begin imagining the life that might have unfolded if it hadn't. The imagination is remarkably generous when it comes to alternate lives.
It edits out uncertainty, removes future disappointments, and leaves behind only possibility. The road not taken begins to glow with a kind of impossible perfection.
