Worrying About tomorrow

Posted by Nathanael Szobody on

When the thought now becomes absorbed into the future, it strays hither and thither in its restless efforts to force or coax from the mystery its explanation; like a spy it hastens from one possibility to another, but in vain; and under all this the wishing soul becomes sorrowful, sits there and waits for the thought to return and enlighten it as to what it might venture to wish with all its heart.

— Soren Kierkegaard

    Wow. As boring as Kierkegaard can get sometimes, THAT was an excellent statement.

    actually i would submit that all of kierkegaard's writing is meant to be as eloquently practical. try him out. his edifying discourses are really good, and not philosophical like a lot of the other stuff.
