#BestLife Go ahead. Quit your job or stay. Shuffle papers in a cubicle or hang a hammock next to a lake. Wherever you go darkness will follow. And so will light. You can be miserable swimming under a waterfall, Or go into ecstasy when someone plays Mozart next to the copy machine. You beautiful donkey.Dumb angelfish. Stop flipping the chanel. It doesn’t matter what you sing about. Just open your mouth, wherever you are, and sing.
