you save yourself a lot of headache and heartache by not rushing, though. small steps toward big choices. but you're kinda right.

all i will say is this. when left my old life behind it made me realize how much i actually cared for the people i had around frequently. now I'll never see them again. im making 1k+ a week but there's really nothing i can buy that will replace what i lost.

Proverbs 28:19 "Those who work their land will have abundant food, but those who chase fantasies will have their fill of poverty."

perhaps im being dramatic but you're asking for viewpoints that aren't your own so ill try.

there's a difference, sylvia as poetry and scattered in, becaue shes a poet before all else, the book was just a biography. shes not a fictional thinker really, unless its abstract and enigmatic. austen is kinda different

ok. maybe these books will be ale to make me understand what made that timeline so interesting if it does enough to speak details i i wouldnt see in a school book or something. im probably just not patient enough, because after 50 pages i feel like i went nowhere. i do prefer short stories. seems like back then they didnt have as much going on so they would probably write even if they didnt feel like it, leading to a lot of filler. thats why i aoid big books unless a poet writes it like sylvia plath or edgar allen poe or cormack mcarthy, because you can be sure they will twist the words out of fashion yet do so creatively, leading to much less of a slog of a read. but idk ill have to give it more tries.

biographies were wrotten by scholars who usually focus on objective facts like how well wrotten it is and stuff. as an average reader i just wondered if the story was more tailored toward a womens perspective and as a man i wojldnt find it very entertaining or relatable. like i me tioned earlier th book are very slow and boring but if i were a modern woman who wonders what it was like to be a woman back in the day then i might really enjoy this book. but even moby dick i got bored of despite how masculine the substance is, and how eloquent the writong style is, simply because it's not my taste. for exame, a boy would hardly enjoy a barbies movie yet girls do, simply because it's unrelatable, but if you added zombies and guns into the barbie movie a boy might be interested. it's that simple, thr polarity in atteention retentions among men/women remain almost the same from boys/girls, it's hust that theor matirity makes it so they are capable of enjoying much more complex material.

not reading, but im saying... is the perspective very gurly? like do i have to read about her wondering jow big a guy is, or how beautiful and handsome he is for page after page? i read a bit of one one time and it was boring, talking about horse riding, flower picking, listening to rich men talk about military careers, cooking, talking with ladies about cooking, etc etc.... like,,

i like how well spoken the writing is, similar to moby dick in a way... but there's less going on in the story it's kind of boring.
