We Live
I'm not telling you to make the world better, because I don't think that progress is necessarily part of the package. I'm just telling you to live in it. Not just to endure it, not just to suffer it, not just to pass through it, but to live in it. To look at it. To try to get the picture. To live recklessly. To take chances. To make your own work and take pride in it. To seize the moment. And if you ask me why you should bother to do that, I could tell you that the grave's a fine and private place, but none I think do there embrace. Nor do they sing there, or write, or argue, or see the tidal bore on the Amazon, or touch their children. And that's what there is to do and get it while you can and good luck at it.

Over at Glenn's joint I left this --
ReplyDeleteI dig the Arnold Palmer mix, too. And the popcorn. The Newman O's... not so much. But that's just cuz I'm mostly into chocolate chip and/or peanut butter cookies if I'm going that route.
Oh, and, yea: Gorgeous, cool, smart, yes yes yes. Surprisingly not sad. Just, kinda, vibing on the fact that he did a lot and, it's quite clear, lead a full life. I should go play basketball while the sun is shining.
--I made 20 of 25 free throws, then lost a game of 21 to a gorgeous, hilarious, sweet-natured high school senior who could dunk. I still scored 16, tho, so it's not all lost; we cool. I need a drink of water. And some new shoes, maybe.
