Crucial Texts
(A discussion of important texts A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning, Bacon Of Studies, amd Sonnet 116 )
Some texts are worth skimming, others tasting, and few worth digesting. However, those texts that create an epiphany moment in one’s life will always be remembered and are definitely worth digesting and revisiting.

The prior quote explains that true, mature, lovers do not need to blow snot for each other when they depart from one another; mature, true, love is not to be displayed publicly. Thus, being a cautionary tale to those assuming that they hold a true, mature love. If one feels the need to show others that they are in love with their significant other, then that individual may want to re-evaluate their current situation. Likewise, John Donne expressed that true, mature lovers deprive themselves of the joys of their relationship by sharing their relationship with the laity of love. Private life into a public spectacle is once again unnecessary and disrespectful to true, mature love. Most individuals would be unable to see this key insight into true, mature, love and would not be able to express it to others; however, John Donne explains this key insight in a memorable and digestible way in his metaphysical poem A Valediction: Forbidding
