Just finished reading Ernest Hemingway’s "For Whom the Bell Tolls" 📚✨

Set during the Spanish Civil War, it follows an American idealist tasked with blowing up a strategic bridge. But beyond the war and romance, the real heart of the story is John Donne’s truth: no one is an island. ​It’s a powerful reminder of how deeply connected we all are, and how purpose and… read more

Raw and universal.

Ernest Hemingway once wrote: "The hardest lesson I’ve had to learn as an adult is the relentless need to keep going, no matter how shattered I feel inside."

The other day as I sat down to "write things down".. Yes, call me Ernest. A lady approached me to try talk me into her religion..in a pub! 🥲😐 At least she was kind and took my gentle refusal politely. She did try a few more times but I still tend to win arguments with a smile 😄😇

Edit : I just realised I wrote 2024 🤣🤣 How is it 2025? Is this even a year? #funny (edited)

Happiness comes to a person in any form, do you recognize him? Ernest Hemingway "The Old Man and the Sea"
