“It’s not life or death, the labyrinth.”
“Um, okay. So what is it?”
“Suffering,” she said. “Doing wrong and having wrong things happen to you. That’s the problem. Bolívar was talking about the pain, not about the living or dying. How do you get out of the labyrinth of suffering?”

i chose pain because this book is about two people who have cancer.
they are dealing with the fact that their lifetime spent on earth will keep changing.
one character can only get rid of his cancer by getting one eye cut out and becoming blind forever.
another character only has one leg.
this pain becoming emotionally rigged on the mind and in the body, is a major theme in Tfios.
I like this because it is very simple and very conceptual. it represents the hospital life line.
once it goes straight, you are officially not alive.
