Despair.
“He manages a supermarket in a small town in Nebraska. Yesterday his wife found a collection of pornographic photographs hidden in their garage. Most of them showed small children performing various sexual acts with adults. She recognized her husband, and their five-year-old niece. She left him, taking the photographs with her. He fears she may already have given them to the police. Today he’s sitting in their family room, realizing that his life is over, wondering if he has the courage physically to end it. He doesn’t. Isn’t it beautiful?” — The Sandman: Brief Lives, Neil Gaiman
