“I glimpse in the distance certain roads , clearings silent in the morning after the nights demons have fled: the future . The ageless future where there is always time to create”, this quote means that no matter what you've been through or what you've done or how bad it was, what you've done can always come back from that and start all over and I think thats what happened with Grillo in the novel Always Running.
