Status Updates From La Divina Comedia: Infierno...

Canto 23: gluttony—starving souls on this terrace are forced to confront desires that once controlled them instead of feeding them. Dante’s reunion with Forese Donati exposes what appetite was masking all along. If so much consumption is really an attempt to fill something deeper, what happens when a person never pauses long enough to face what’s underneath the craving?

Canto 22 continues on the terrace of avarice, reflective about influence and hidden conviction. Statius reveals that Virgil helped lead him toward truth through poetry, though Virgil himself could not fully reach it, someone carrying light for others while remaining in shadow himself. If the books, voices, and people around us shape what we become, what kind of soul is your environment actually training you toward?

Acabei o inferno 🙏🏻
