Getting crazy
These are days I question, what the hell am I doing? I spend 8-13 hours in the office, 1-2 hours at the gym and at best 6-8 hours sleeping. The most interesting conversations and forms of entertainment I seem to derive in conversations with myself, usually in my morning walks to the train.
Yesterday's conversation:
Dq: Isn't it interesting how Abe Lincoln's depression is what drove him to become a President?
Dq2: Not just President, but a hard working President. He felt like he needed to become a mand of respect inorder to earn that respect.
Dq: Do you think it was really depression? Or just a hyper sensitivity.
Dq2: It was clinically diagnosed as depression, but it could be translated as a hyper-sensitivity. He had a genuine care for the people and that showed. It's like he used that depression as a driving force. Like Winston Churchill, Kept busy and worked hard for a set of goals he believed in (saving England), but always had a sense of dignified gloom about him like Lincoln did.
Dq: Like he cruxified himself.
Dq2: Exactly! That is what a leader does. He has to care about the people. He has to be the people, give them hope, and love them all. Tha'ts why Bush won. He looked closer to his family. He exuded a genuine care. Look at Obama. How does someone with the name Obama, a democrate, win IL? He trumpeted faith, family and care. Kerry was a Fucking puppet, but we voted for him. Not that he didn't showcare, he never addressed issues of faith, especially in a country where 97% of all people believe in a God.
Dq: I know. You figure a purple heart, decorated war veteran and hero, and respected Senator from the Kennedy state would have no issues. Anyway, that's what good kings did. I was listening to the Matisyahu CD, live at stubbs, and he talked about the times of Kings -Kings are suppose to be poets, the hearts of the people. He is supposed to be able to lay down for them.
Dq2: we're all poets.
Dq: but we're not all kings.
Dq2: true that, my friend.
Dq: Chest and Back today?
Dq2: No, we got that thing to go to.
Dq: Right. I hope _ is there. She's something else.
Dq2: Yep, me too.
