“I do not recall our Lord ever saying one could not be 'cool'. It is only a problem if one esteems 'coolness' above that which is righteous and true, which is, when we give it its way, really what many of us do. 'Coolness' is too transient to be of any real and meaningful, lasting significance, and it is often in great conflict with one being one's most honest, most vulnerable self. That, and in reality, some of the coolest people are actually those who least concern themselves with being cool anyway, those who make 'trying to be cool' less evident.” GodSignificanceCornyCheesyCoolTrendyCoolnessUncoolHipTrendiness Book:Healology Source: Healology
“One should not look down on this eagerness to be trendy—it belongs to the heart that is common to all. Day after day, night after night, it is this desire that holds up and sustain this city’s prosperity. This common heart, being pure and clear, is best able to take stock of the changing times. Like the evergreen, it is eternal.” FashionCity LifeNormalcyNormal PeopleTrendiness Book:The Song of Everlasting Sorrow: A Novel of Shanghai Source: The Song of Everlasting Sorrow: A Novel of Shanghai
