Challenge 429: Loss

Title: Lessons
Characters: The Doctor
Rating: G
Disclaimer: The character belongs to the BBC.

In his youth, he knows:

The world that cocoons him is small, yet it holds within its boundaries more tedium and pomposity than the imagination can encompass. The world is stagnant and inert. It is a fact. It will always be a fact.

The universe that dwarfs him is vast, yet its limitless confines are not enough to contain the adventure he craves or the escape he needs. The universe is fluid and mutable. It is quicksilver, and he can make of it what he will and lose nothing at all. 

With age, he learns:

Loss is the only constant.
