nothing stops
It was so heavy-handed and so stupid, hitting the nail on the head so hard that it rang like a bell. Nothing stops. — Helena Fitzgerald on Substack Nothing stops. None of it. The good times, nor the bad.
It was so heavy-handed and so stupid, hitting the nail on the head so hard that it rang like a bell. Nothing stops. — Helena Fitzgerald on Substack Nothing stops. None of it. The good times, nor the bad. There is no “until this is over”, or “when I’m done this.” There is no “when I get less busy” or “after this term.” Nothing stops. There is one Annie Dillard quote I hold central to my world view, How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. What we do with this hour and that one is what we are doing. What can you do to make your hours, days, and life meaningful? Certainly not
