@MeBigbrain @sparky Words are just no remedy for actions. I have too many teens in the family telling me about how they’re figuring life out by reading shit, instead of living. You won’t learn anything without the experience, without real history and feeling behind the philosophy. Better off working a construction gig and talking to down-on-their-luck people, or volunteering at the firehouse and playing ride-along in order to see real human suffering with your own eyes.
Instead, they’ll read a bood, feel good about how erudite and classy they are, and….forget all of it a year later.
