How long will it take for me before I can finally integrate into the 4chan /lit community? Will I have to finish reading the top 100 list? What do I have to do? Pls desu.

I am alone, I long for love but am unable to love carelessly. The misfortune of my first love left me broken and heaved me into a world where the perfect first love is now yonder. Do you see my torment now, my agony to life itself? I have been given a chance at the first love but now, I am incorrigible. In my teens, though a nineteen I still am, I found a sanctuary for my pursuits. One was music and has lead me into a life of never ending work; the life of a musician, a composer. I wouldnt say I am an artist yet but through the search for inspiration, /lit entered my world. Literature took a place in my world as that significance as a wedding ring on the bride, ofc metaphorically, and metaphorically, I was the gentleman who allowed the ring to bestow my love. You see ladies and gentleman. The bride is my love, my music, The ring is /lit, and the groomsman is me. Within this metaphorical world, I have reached perfection again, I have been given another chance, a chance that does not rely on the other, but on my own. A fair chance as our sweet prince Elliot Rogerwould say it, as a fair world. This is why I need /lit. This is why I must read and indulge myself into the stories left to the world. This is why I live, to reach perfection at a second chance. I laugh as I type this hypocritically, a second perfection? Yes. Now you understand, now you see why I must read. Enjoy your lived gentleman. Z

Why post a picture of a bunch of books you havent read yet? And if you're reading something that you don't understand or enjoy, how are you going to gain anything from it? Kant's Critique of Pure Reason isnt going to "plant a great seed in you" if you dont have the educational basis to make sense of it. Same goes for many other books you have. I just feel you're not being truthful at all with an anonymous image board, so I find it hard to believe you're truthful with those close to you, or even yourself. Like, what are you trying to prove with this childish purple way in which you write your posts? What were you trying to prove with this thread?

You're a literal meme, one of the few things worse then seeing people with just /lit/ memes like IJ and pynchon on the shelves are those who buy philosophy out of order.
