My thoughts

"Do not read, as children do, to amuse yourself, or like the ambitious, for the purpose of instruction. No, read in order to live."
— Gustave Flaubert

I was looking for inspirational text online, because I am afraid to fall into a trap of a workaholic, better suited would be the word "karieristka". And I ran into this. I am human, not workaholic, if I can feel this text, if I can read for living.

Yesterday, my friend, introduced me to a beautiful poem by Esenin. It seems as though I have never read it before, as strange as that sounds, even to me. I will post it later.
