Live enough of what you've always dreamed of doing, and there's no room left for feeling bad. The original sin is to limit the Is. Don't. If it's never our fault, we can't take responsibility for it. If we can't take responsibility for it, we'll always be its victim. If you will practice being fictional for a while, you will understand that fictional characters are sometimes more real than people with bodies and heartbeats. Imagine the universe beautiful and just and perfect. Then be sure of one thing: the Is has imagined it quite a bit better than you have. Your friends will know you better in the first minute that you meet than your acquaintances will know you in a thousand years. In order to live free and happily, you must sacrifice boredom. It is not always an easy sacrifice. It is by not always thinking of yourself, if you can manage it, that you might somehow be happy. Until you make room in your life for someone as important to you as yourself, you will always be searching and lost Live never to be ashamed if anything you do or say is published around the world - even if what is published is not true. I gave my life to become the person I am right now. Was it worth it? Not being known doesn't stop the truth from being true. |
