Life, liberty and the pursuit

When you reach That Point after hours of socializing

I threw myself to the wolves, only to learn of the tenderness in their howl, and the loyalty in their blood.

The first rule is to keep an untroubled spirit. The second is to look things in the face and know them for what they are.

Because today we live in a society in which spurious realities are manufactured by the media, by governments, by big corporations, by religious groups, political groups… So I ask, in my writing, What is real? Because unceasingly we are bombarded with pseudo-realities manufactured by very sophisticated people using very sophisticated electronic mechanisms. I do not distrust their motives; I distrust their power. They have a lot of it. And it is an astonishing power: that of creating whole universes, universes of the mind.

The core of your true self is never lost. Let go of all the pretending and the becoming you’ve done just to belong. Curl up with your rawness and come home. You don’t have to find yourself; you just have to let yourself in.

Time stays long enough for those who use it.
