When GOD wants to turn a boy into a man.
He doesn't comfort HIM.
He crushes him with failure, betrayal, loneliness, heartbreak, and rejection.
That's not a punishment.
It's a FORGE.
A man who reads old books cannot be fully captured by modern stupidity. He has dead kings, prophets, poets, killers, saints, drunks, generals, and madmen whispering in his bloodstream. The feed has no chance against this.
An affliction of the times: Rushing
What a bogus way to live. Rushing out of bed to the coffee machine to the desk. Rushing to finish one book so you can read another on your list. Rushing to finish the month so you can get to the holiday.
How aweful. Living for the peaks and ignoring everything inbetween. Slowwwwww down you baboon. Enjoy today. Enjoy now. Breeeathe you fool.
Enjoy the joe. Enjoy your dinner. Enjoy the security you have. Enjoy the round of golf youre playing. Enjoy the book youre into. Why does it always have to be next next next next. Chill out. Its right in front of you.
