To Burn Out You Must First Be On Fire.

My dear,

People constantly go on and on about how burnt out they are by everyday life.

I find this endlessly annoying, for I see that none of them are doing that which they love passionately everyday. The only people that can truly burn out are those who are pursuing what they love with all their might. Only those who’s hearts and eyes are ablaze can burn out.

For if you were to burn out you must first be on fire.

Falsely yours,
A. Nonymous
