Perfect Addiction

Activism is the most perfect addiction.

If you are restless, activism satiates you.

If you tire, it wakes you up.

If you are confident, activism humbles you.

If you tremble, it steads you fast.

If you’re emotional, activism soothes you.

If you chill, it lights a fire.


It’s the perfect self-administered micro-drug.

It’s the ever-ready friend that never lets you down.


(Quote adapted from Christopher Hitchens)
