A Reflection on Unstructured Learning

Simply by waiting, Nite Owl learned what to name himself. This passage taught me a prominent lesson in life; if you're ever in distress, wait it out. In referencing Stephen King's collection of short stories, Everything's Eventual, this message is universal. Nite Owl, the protagonist of the passage, clearly states that he has struggled to come up with ideas for his costume/name for a decent amount of time. Instead of searching frantically for an answer, he simply waited and the answer came to him. Every question you have will be answered in time, I believe. I think that this idea is the central theme of the passage.
