I think most people are walking around suppressing abundances of despair and disappointment, and those that have trouble suppressing them are either given chemicals by law-abiding health professionals, or are ruining their lives with chemicals that they obtain themselves.
I had to take Introduction to Religion my first semester and I got kind of a lot, jumbled and fragmented but a lot, out of Zen and the Art of Archery. Something about rhythm and detachment and ultimate reality. Knit two together, knit, knit, knit&purl, knit&purl, knit, knit, knit, slipslipsknit, repeat, repeat, repeat... look, waves... look, a scarf... look, nirvana... It's important to keep your hopes and expectations to a minimum. And also not to stay up too late by yourself thinking. Especially when there's nothing good on Nick@Nite. And keep your world small. Some people are cut out to battle giants. Others are not. I don't have the constitution. And as long as I can be of no help, I'm going to hide. |
