Still Running
You woke up this morning and something was already wrong. Not broken. Not painful exactly. Just off. A low hum beneath everything. You've felt it your whole life.
Meditations on the Restless Soul
By A. Kade
You woke up this morning and something was already wrong. Not broken. Not painful exactly. Just off. A low hum beneath everything. You've felt it your whole life.
Still Running is a meditation on the restlessness at the center of human experience. The endless reaching. The mirages that shimmer and dissolve. The running we can't seem to stop.
This is not a self-help book. There are no steps, no solutions, no promises that the ache will fade if you just try hard enough. Just an honest look at the condition we all share but rarely name.
From the Book
"The running is not a problem to solve. It's the shape of being alive."
"You are still running. Still here. Still."
"We are alone together, which is better than alone."
"The hum doesn't want anything from you. It just is. Like weather. Like gravity. Like the fact of being born."
