The Will to Resist

Bic vs. Furnace


Some flames flicker. Some flames forge.

A Bic lighter can spark, shine, even warm you for a second. But the wind kills it. The fuel runs dry. You spend more time shielding it than enjoying it.

A furnace? It doesn’t flicker. It doesn’t beg. It burns steady, with or without an audience. Step close, you get warmth. Step careless, you get scorched.

The truth is this: you don’t shrink yourself down to match a Bic. You don’t chase sparks. You stay the furnace. And sparks either catch — or fade.
