Maybe it’s the only way to overcome passive nihilism? It certainly burnt through the last skerricks of self-pitying insulation i had left in that suburban home I call a body (the body i call a suburban home). How many times have I turned from a corporate gee-up manual written by a motivational speaker in disgust or laughter? How many times have i made snide remarks about the language of our time? How many times will i have 2 read Nztsch to understand the difference between masters and slaves? How many times do we have 2 swallow the bitter piss coffee in the lunch room 2 understand that enough is enough? I have put on my ‘Business Mastery’ cap. If i did not i would currently be a dribbling baboon in the ward of one of our state’s finest cuckoo’s nests i mean insane asylums i mean mental institutions i mean homes for the philosophically impaired. And what strikes me now is: Is it a cop out to stay sane? Or more of a cop out to let myself go loco? Because the passive nihilist in me sees those big bars on the windows and those well ordered days and well medicated nights and thinks longingly of comfort, of grey plastic gowns and well scheduled naps. And it looks mighty nice from out here. But for now a living hell with occasional gulps of mountain air is still the only path. And until it isn’t the ‘Business Mastery’ cap stays on. And the To Do List gets ticked off. And the Day is full of Networking Opportunities, Business Dates and momentary flashes of the Devil’s Grin. -- source link
