Sam enjoyed knowledge. The accumulation and distribution of facts gave him a feeling of control, of utility, of the opposite of the powerlessness that comes with having a smallish, underdeveloped body that doesn't dependably respond to the mental commands of a largish, overstimulated brain.
Sam found solace in knowledge, relishing the process of gathering and sharing information. This pursuit provided him a sense of agency, contrasting sharply with the frustration stemming from his small, uncooperative body that often failed to align with his restless mind. Knowledge became a refuge, empowering him amid feelings of inadequacy.
For Sam, facts and insights represented not just intellectual engagement, but a way to reclaim some control over his circumstances. In a world where he often felt powerless, the ability to learn and impart knowledge was a lifeline that helped balance the challenges posed by his physical limitations.
