There are moments of crystal clarity. But they are brief and often washed away by waves of doubt and insecurity. It's a dizzying ride back to square one.

But in those moments of clarity, life makes sense. Reasons are clear, and if they aren't, there's satisfaction in the knowledge that you're exactly where you need to be. Life's good to you, and the best is yet to come.

Why Euphony and Cacophony? Because that's how I view this world. A whirlwind of extremes. And that's who I am. Restless and settled. Disappointed and hopeful. Confident and insecure. Reserved and ambitious.
