The prayer should sit next to the wall, raising his right arm and folding his left leg, according to drawing A.
No one said that the position should be comfortable.
The place should be noisy, the wind should bring dust
and the place has to be crowded and smelly.
Only this way will the prayer HAVE to find within himself all the will
Which is the only condition to a prayer, not even for a good prayer,
for a few simple words, that you’ll deserve to say, to sing, to whisper.
Because there’s no duty without difficulties, there’s no achievment without a long path.
A few simple words
Not less,
not more.

Praying should not become a habit, but an exceptional event.
God will never show you the way, god will never give you more than what you can do to yourself
And the idea of a useless god will be frightening
and will lead you to become an adult, without hiding behind a sacred text.

Your god doesn’t necessarily want you to obey his rules
because rules are weak, things are never that simple and never covers all the possibilities
And you’ll be responsible for the rules you’ll write as much as your understanding of the written ones,
No one will forgive you for misreading anyway, from a book to the writings on the walls.

God is in you, and not in the mouth of the master.

Well, Julien wrote this way back last year, and each time I reread it I find a different meaning and conclusion. When what you read can do this to you, you had better start paying attention. I read this and go, “Fuck, what do I do now?”
