A Grief Observed - C. S. Lewis

1. No one ever told me that grief felt so like fear. I am not afraid, but the sensation is like being afraid. The same fluttering in the stomach, the same restlessness, the yawning. I keep on swallowing.

The best player in the world is already in Real Madrid and wears the number 7 shirt.

[Julien Laurens @LaurensJulien]

Imagine winning the Champions League, for the 6th time in the last 10 years, and in two days, you will announce the signing of the best player in the world!! This is bonkers. This is Real Madrid!

When Vinicius Jr arrived at Real Madrid, they meme’d him about football.

When he proved them wrong on the pitch, they turned into blaming him for his ‘attitude’ to attempt to put context for ‘racism’.

This is the most disgraceful treatment of a footballer I have ever seen.

you must be able
to do three things:
to love what is mortal;
to hold it
against your bones knowing
your own life depends on it;
and, when the time comes to let it go,
to let it go.

- Mary Oliver

even ahead of time. The lover's fatal identity is precisely this: I am the one who waits.

- Roland Barthes

[Atif Alam @atifalam38]

Am I in love? --yes, since I am waiting. The other one never waits. Sometimes I want to play the part of the one who doesn't wait; I try to busy myself elsewhere, to arrive late; but I always lose at this game. Whatever I do, I find myself there, with nothing to do, punctual,

I spent years studying why #Pakistan is stuck in this cycle of democratic backsliding and then democratization. I literally wrote a book about this, I took pains to explain exactly why this happens having lived it first hand. The answer is because that’s how the system is set up
