Countless humans really think their knowledge and experiences are super special and quite unique, pretty distinquished from all others. Alas, this shows any absence of real insight, knowledge and humility.
In fact, it has always been literature describing all sorts of experiences - some is flat and empty, some is very strong pulling a reader right into the taking place of events described. The truth is: even those tiny pieces of more or less crap we have posted in here (of course not all is crap, but not a few posts) are not that unique we always think - each experience has forerunners somewehere in literature, the uniqueness exists only insofar, as the experiencing subject is unique in space and time. Which is actually only a tiny spot in the universe, almost nothing...
Steinbecks Grapes of Wrath is one of the strongest short novels telling of hard lives many have experienced and still experiencing. It explains the struggle for life and situations in which humans sometimes feel forced. But what I`m telling you. Many of you have said in here, that every human is responsible for his/her fate and can freely choose what life he/she is going to materialize. You better shut up and listen to Steinbecks story in order to approach the human! The human you have missed by stating ridiculous sentences and beliefs! The human which is deeply loved by the divine, the human in all hardship and beauty, in all courage and limits...
This is part 1, the other parts you will find for yourself.
Enjoy!
