Postscript on “Golden Boys”

I have been ranting and raving all semester against the idea that we should emphasize that we are working, working, working, that our work is work, and so on.

I have been ranting and raving against the idea that we should resent those for whom things look easy.

I enjoy the presence of those for whom things look easy because it is relaxing to look at the world that way. I would rather radiate happiness and joy and calm than sweat and strain, I really would.

Everyone knows work is hard, and the constant repetition of this which is in fashion, simply becomes traumatic.

Axé.
