Love the short format of Beau Johnson (@beaujohnson44) stories. It's crisp, hardboiled and ends with a gut punch. Bishop Rider is slowly becoming one of my favorite characters.
@_MattCardin Its a beautiful country. However I was amazed at the people living in the deep countryside outside of Billings where, to put it simply, isolation feels primal. It was a disquieting experience TBH.
@_MattCardin I love this format of Chapter updates 🙂. I could relate to the author in this aspect although I haven't lived in Montana I did a short sojourn there. We covered a huge amount of miles by car in the vast open expanse. There was the feeling of just the "sky" looming over me.
@_MattCardin @michaelmhughes @CFPage_Author S2 is great if you like damaged characters going through redemptive arcs. That's a motif that truly captivates me. "Prince Zuko" of Avatar Last Airbender, Steve Carrel's character from The Morning Show, "Jaime Lannister" from GoT are all excellent portrayals of the motif.
@_MattCardin I loved Dr. Peterson's interpretation of Christ's sojourn in the desert. I strongly believe you might enjoy reading it. Thanks again for your earnest reply as always!
@_MattCardin have you read 12 Rules for Life by Jordan B. Peterson? There are a lot of derivations from the Bible in his book. Given your expertise, what is your opinion on it?
@_MattCardin Thanks for the very thorough response on this Dr. Cardin. The book is, by far, really elegant and eloquent on the application of biblical morals on the current day and age. He has done a great job on exhibiting a very positive approach in dealing with suffering.
@_MattCardin I also recommend you read it when you find the time. One could benefit greatly from your analysis and review of it. Even if you don't end up reading it, I urge you to read just the chapter entitled "Rule 7: Pursue what is meaningful (not what is expedient)".
