CHAIR.LIKE.TEETH

Music enthusiast, retro-gamer, mid-twenties and married. I work at Rise Records in Portland, OR. I used to front the rock band The Graduate, and occasionally write story-lines and music for video games.

Tragedy is much more of an adventure than joy. I am not saying joy is over-rated. But happiness is fleeting; it exists in the present. Tragedy casts a long and persistent shadow with the power to dim even the most perfect moment. It also has the potential to follow us to the end. We don’t stop to analyze happiness but when grief and strife occur we recount the events leading up to it over and over. It wakes us from our sleep as we try to figure out how and where it all went wrong.

—Olivia Harrison
