Racing against Hurricanes
Three passions have governed my life:
The longings for love, the search for knowledge,
And unbearable pity for the suffering of [humankind].
Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness.
In the union of love I have seen
In a mystic miniature the prefiguring vision
Of the heavens that saints and poets have imagined.
With equal passion I have sought knowledge.
I have wished to understand the hearts of [people].
I have wished to know why the stars shine.
Love and knowledge led upwards to the heavens,
But always pity brought me back to earth;
Cries of pain reverberated in my heart
Of children in famine, of victims tortured
And of old people left helpless.
I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot,
And I too suffer.
This has been my life; I found it worth living.
- Bertrand Russell
I’m the Jonathan you once knew, still know, and always will know. Just like how the kites are bound by the strings, they fly but never fly free; Planes too, fly, but they’ll land someday. Riding on the kite aloft the winds, playing hide and seek with the plane flying far overhead, we hope to only fly higher without the absolved disappointment.
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never
hurt me.
please me.
HAHAHA WTF
