your entire life, the things that you most covet will torture you the greatest
If you worship money and things -- if they are where you tap real meaning in life -- then you will never have enough. Never feel you have enough. It's the truth. Worship your own body and beauty and sexual allure and you will always feel ugly, and when time and age start showing, you will die a million deaths before they finally plant you. On one level, we all know this stuff already -- it's been codified as myths, proverbs, clichés, bromides, epigrams, parables: the skeleton of every great story. The trick is keeping the truth up-front in daily consciousness. Worship power -- you will feel weak and afraid, and you will need ever more power over others to keep the fear at bay. Worship your intellect, being seen as smart -- you will end up feeling stupid, a fraud, always on the verge of being found out. And so on.
you choose what to worship
this is so ridiculously and absurdly subjective I'm a little in awe of it.
they should show this post to people that don't have enough headaches
but then the scene from Scanners would happen frequently
you wouldn't even be able to turn a street corner without seeing at least 3 heads explode

Thinking about it a little bit, I was looking at it way harder than necessary. It's not a complicated statement, and I was trying to work out some hidden levels of meaning in the definition of worship and suchlike. But the meaning is obvious and it even says it is obvious! So yeah, that was a dumb post by yours truly.

I have never biked home so fast. As soon as I got under the entrance area of my apartment, the skies above opened up and drenched everything.

This scares lightning away
I am sorry guys.
I am apparently a terrible person.
Nah. You made a mistake, learn from it. Everyone does it!
you just shouldn't blame yourself for your friends' problems
unless you actually caused their problems, don't make it sound like it's your fault
hope things get better dude
