“The only way out is through”

is often just a prettier way of saying

let it burn and hope you survive the smoke.

I’ve learned to be suspicious of slogans

that sound like wisdom but feel like drift.

Not everything that sounds simple is shallow.

True—some simple lines carry weight.

I’ve just noticed how often we repeat certain ones

not because they’re true,

but because they echo well.
