Session #n54: First-Person Narratives

📌 PAST TENSES
You can use various past tenses in your story:

- past simple, to describe actions which started and ended in the past, or actions which happened one after the other in the past.
e.g. I went to Paris last month.
I walked past the bank and slopped at the post office to buy some stamps.

- past continuous, to set the scene or to describe events/actions in progress at a certain time in the past.
e.g. It was pouring with rain that evening. We were all sitting In the living room,

- past perfect, for actions which happened before other past actions, or to give the background of the story.
e.g. I decided to call Mr Jones and tell him the truth about what had happened.

‍ ⚜🎶🔴PRONUNCIATION🔴🎶⚜

Be silent and listen: have you recognized your madness and do you admit it? Have you noticed that all your foundations are completely mired in madness? Do you not want to recognize your madness and welcome it in a friendly manner? You wanted to accept everything. So accept madness too. Let the light of your madness shine, and it will suddenly dawn on you. Madness is not to be despised and not to be feared, but instead you should give it life...If you want to find paths, you should also not spurn madness, since it makes up such a great part of your nature...Be glad that you can recognize it, for you will thus avoid becoming its victim. Madness is a special form of the spirit and clings to all teachings and philosophies, but even more to daily life, since life itself is full of craziness and at bottom utterly illogical. Man strives toward reason only so that he can make rules for himself. Life itself has no rules. That is its mystery and its unknown law. What you call knowledge is an attempt to impose something comprehensible on life.
