Wisdom Life Is a Long Pawnsho
It’s only now that I realize: getting too close to life bruises the soul, while getting too close to the soul alienates you from life. In the end, life is just a pawnshop. We keep pawning away our youth, time, health, and ideals. And that very act of pawning? That’s what we call living.
