Your most recent post is incredibly, incredibly real... It's hard to double fist both your "baseline tasks" (passing your classes, socializing) and achieve the real things you want to get out of life simultaneously. I find myself in a similar predicament... Wishing the best of luck to you
Can't wait to watch the movie so I can read your thoughts on it. Also been thinking about Flannery O'Connor lately. A musician I like, Sufjan Stevens, made a song called A Good Man is Hard to Find à la her short story. Read it in one of my English classes a year or so ago & still think about it. I didn't like it at the time, but the longer I carry it in my mind the fonder of it I become.
If you haven't listened to his music before, maybe you should listen to a song or two. He has a lot of allusions to Christianity in his work that quite frankly go above my head most of the time, & not like a halo, (more like a very fast bird, myself shaded under its wings for a moment).
