Wandering is an art in itself. They say some of those who wander are not lost, but getting lost may be just the thing.
“That so few dare be eccentric marks the chief danger of our time.” —John Stuart Mill
My view of capitalism is that it is mostly cannibalistic. I was tired of being chewed on. I’m on a long hiatus from work at the moment and I am enjoying some real fun times getting lost.
“He wanders east, he wanders west, where will he ever come to rest?” —Unknown
I can’t and won’t fit in. One must give up the illusion of security to truly taste the real fruit of life. There is no other way sometimes than to just say “fuck it” and jump.
“Relax, none of us is getting out of here alive.” Mel Brooks said. Death is coming eventually or tomorrow, but you have control of what you think now and this leads to freedom in what you do. Some say the world is deterministic and you have no choice or freedom from cause and effect, but that’s not totally true in my experience.
“Why do you postpone yourself?” —Seneca
The less you desire, the more you have.
“ ‘Is there anybody there?” said the Traveler, Knocking on the moonlit door.”
—Walter de la Mare
Don’t postpone yourself is all I could say.
Cheers 🍻 and hail fellow wanderers!
