LABOR DAY

“Labor Day, is it about making things? No, it’s about building complexity--which in some ages meant things, and others meant journeys, and others meant daring... ‘and others meant couches.’ CT. Just because you were a potato, don’t assume an age for people like yous.

“The building takes many forms, and to accomplish the tasks of the past is to do fruitless work. ‘Look, I can saddle the horse quickly.’ O boy. ‘I turn chariot wheels to make them true.’ Whoopee. ‘I polish the brass doorknob on the admiral’s door.’ What a feat! See, labor once, becomes nothing. So, choose well the tasks you engage.

“And if they seem sustaining more than visionary, ask yourself some questions... ‘like, what the hell am I doing.’ CT, that’s right! Just because a job seems to need to be done, does not mean it needs to be done.” (9/5/2011)
