More From Susan Orlean

Yes, we could talk to you for days on end about all the bad first dates. those are stories. funny stories. awkward stories. stories we love to share, because by sharing them, we get something out of the hour or two we wasted on the wrong person. but that's all bad first dates are: short stories. good first dates are more than short stories. they are first chapters. on a good first date, everything is springtime. and when a good first date becomes a relationship, the springtime lingers. even after it's over, there can be springtime.
Two Awkward Stories
It is not the high summer alone that is god's. the winter also is his. and into his winter he came to visit us. and all man's winters are his - the winter of our poverty, the winter of our sorrow, the winter of our unhappiness - even 'the winter of our discontent.
Summer Winter Men
That, they never could lay their heads upon their pillows; that, they never could tolerate the idea of their wives laying their heads upon their pillows; that, they never could endure the notion of their children laying their heads upon their pillows; in short, that there never more could be, for them or theirs, any laying of heads upon pillows at all, unless the prisoner's head was taken off.
Children Taken Ideas
I need a good book i need a good story. i need a good book. the kind that explodes off the shelf. i need some good writing, alive and exciting, to contemplate all by myself. i need a good novel, i need a good read. i probably need two or three. i need a good tale of love and betrayal or perhaps an adventure at sea. i need a good saga. i need a good yarn. a momentous and mightily or slight one. but with thousands and thousands and thousands of books, i need someone to tell me the right one. -john lithgow
Betrayal Book Writing
And we passed through the cavern of rats. and we passed through the path of boiling steam. and we passed through the country of the blind. and we passed through the slough of despond. and we passed through the vale of tears. and we came, finally, to the ice caverns.
Country Ice Tears
I know if i persist it will pay back in dividends and it always does. what starts to happen is like exercise, the pain goes away. it starts to get easier and the weight starts to get lighter and people start to notice a difference in you and you start to notice a difference in yourself. you find your ability to make decisions is easier; you find you are inspired more often. you find your success increases. you find that your random moments when you're in the flow are no longer random and you can control them. other people notice the difference.

Pain Sound Hermione
People look at things differently. imagine going to a village in southern sudan and try to explain to someone there the concept of life insurance or retirement. go to vietnam and say retirement. retirement in another country is your body is too racked with pain and your hands are too arthritic from the life in the rice patty fields, so you can't work anymore. so you move in with your son and his new wife takes care of you because that's how families work there.
Country Retirement Pain
You are all things. denying, rejecting, judging or hiding from any aspect of your total being creates pain and results in a lack of wholeness.
