Teach Me To Overcome 5.26.08

Rating: 5.0


A friend moving house, many
books, a few golden oldies -
too many light romances:
Love too popular a subject;
intrigues proving love is never
subjected to wisdom, describing
misconception and irrationality
as the golden rule, little wonder
there is no mental progress
with books teaching readers
how to mess up life, a myriad
ways to jump to wrong conclusions
and promote misunderstandings,
making improvement impossible

I prefer books teaching me to
overcome limitations in reality,
instead of perpetuating them!
