solomon's splendor

the iconic question of our times, per alain de botton is, what do you do for a living? these days i say, i am a lily of the field.

this is an answer that separates:
1. those who read from those who do not*,
2. the lady catherine from the rest**, and
3. the conversationalist from the curious inept***.

*within the western judeo-christian canon of course, which is where i hang out myself.
**de bourgh, again, from the above canon, who equates toiling and spinning with good character.
***thus providing diversion either way.
