A stock report and a human... «Love Is the Higher Law»
robot12 декабря 2016A stock report and a human resources memorandum. Picking them up and reading them, I felt a sadness so deep that it will never really be gone.

It was a higher state of sobriety, a painful state of sobriety, because the truth was suddenly unvarnished, making me feel unvarnished. Something as mundane as two sheets of paper from an office file could provide the final evidence of how vulnerable we are, how we live our lives not knowing how or when they will end. I had a sense then of how if we truly understood how many of the unimportant things we do will end up outliving us, we’d never be able to go on
