mindsetsLet me share my favorite in-story welcome message in all of #literature. It's spoken by Pablo in STEPPENWOLF by #HermannHesse (occasionally misquoted in translation):
"'This little theater of mine has as many doors into as many boxes as you please, ten or a hundred or a thousand, and behind each door exactly what you seek awaits you. It is a pretty cabinet of pictures, my dear friend; but it would be quite useless for you to go through it as you are. You would be checked and blinded at every turn by what you are pleased to call your personality. You have no doubt guessed long since that the conquest of time and the escape from reality, or however else it may be that you choose to describe your longing, means simply the wish to be relieved of your so-called personality. That is the prison where you lie.'"
Another guy who upbraids/upbraided his readers a bit, huh? Though not overtly.

At times I wonder if I upbraid my readers too much. Even if usually not overtly. But then I check out what the great WEATHER IS HAPPENING Weather Man is (always) telling his readers. Overtly. Reminding me how maybe we all should be upbraided more, not less... Yeah, it's a fine mess we've made! And no, I don't think Weather Man is only joking around. Not truly. #repentance #WeatherIsHappening https://weatherishappening.network/@WEATHERISHAPPENING/116256146311230496
