I look forward to being an avid reader of FYF. Keep up the great work.

My clients would go out drinking and couldn't study the next day, cancel tutoring sessions and sleep in class. It was very frusterating and I see you lament some of the same frusterations. This has led me to get started on my dreams. thanks. Hay,

Sounds like the realization TGL wasn't going anywhere must have felt dishonest. That probably rubbed your integrity the wrong way. You have lot's of fans here (I'm one) and even though no one really seems to be doing anything serious about changing the 9-5 prison lie life (because of the money), it sure sounded like a great thing to be doing. I often wonder if that old saw "freedom is just another name for nothing left to lose" points out the problem of clinging well enough. We lose it all eventually, yep! even the neat stuff we tried so hard & long to organize so perfectly (a short visit to your local cancer ward will quickly confirm this obvious fact). The Growing Life has lot's of seasons when nothing much grows or else it grows perfectly withered and dead. It baffles me that people just can't see that. Our whole economic outlook is based on an arrow wafting ever upward through an ever increasingly tight dark narrow soul suffocating quarterly consciousness repeated ad nauseam (till death do it's part). Sound like the valley of the shadow of death? Nah, but if we're looking for perfection we came to the wrong place. Things are supposed to be fucked up here. Folks, let the fucked up light shine a little. Nothing grows forever not even TGL. j- Cool man, just do it! Sounds like the realization TGL wasn’t going anywhere must have felt dishonest.
