Answering Your Philosophical Questions

You might not have been built to brace yourself against the corners

But the calluses are forming over those tired blisters and it’s getting easier.

I know you’ve been dropped a few times.

You’ve fallen into those pits.

And I know you don’t think you’re strong enough to hold yourself up.

But no one is.

You asked if anyone was made the right way to hold themselves against the corners

I’ll answer that.

No one is.

We either learn how or we die trying.

And you say want to suck the marrow from the bones of life

Well get started.

 Because the best way to do that is curl your fingers against those walls and do your best.

I’m telling you this from someone who sat in the pit for awhile.

I wasn’t born this able to press against the walls

But I’m still holding on.
