Responsibility...

Parents aren’t technically responsible for their children, because their children are unique human beings who have their own destiny, fate, and karma to work out.

In reverse too, children aren’t technically responsible for their parents, because their parents come with their own destiny, fate, and karma in the grand weave of Life.

Both parents and children CHOOSE to care for each other. That choice is what makes everything meaningful. That choice is what defines family. That choice is why they call it Love.

Corporate...

Most corporate frameworks are designed to exploit people until they break.

When we go along with the playbook of a murderer, we shouldn’t be surprised when the corpses start piling up.

Apocalypse Humor...

[Vintage TV-advertisement narrator voiceover]

“When the ‘aliens are among us’ promo failed to convince the world, including alien enthusiasts, all thanks to everyone having access to the Internet, world governments scrambled to release the next Covid-19 update, which was delayed for geo-political reasons.”

“Are you finding it difficult to start the Apocalypse? Don’t know which way is up or which to go? Our consultation services are available at reasonable prices.

Contact us at Mercott-0-0-6 and let a killer team get your shi* sorted and this party started.”

Perspective...

“There’s only so hard you can go,” said the nail looking at the hammer.

“There’s only so far you can go,” said the hammer looking at the nail.

“There’s only one way this is going,” said the plank of wood looking at them both.

Hope...

There’s an interesting phrase: ‘hope springs eternal’. It means hope will always be there, always come back, much like a bubbling spring of water from the ground.

However, there is also the high probability that a spring can dry up. Add whatever metaphors you want, but the possibility remains: ‘hope can dry eternal’.

Drops...

Climate Change wasn’t born, it grew.

Just like small drops make an ocean, small human-induced mistakes and overlooks over several decades has created the Climate Crisis We see today.

Creature...

When you’re lost in the desert, you realize you’re a creature in need of water.

When you’re drowning in the sea, you realize you’re a creature in need of land.

And when you finally die, you realize you were never a creature at all.

"Bloody Mary"...

Imagine this. One of the songs on your playlist comes on while you’re doing household chores and a neighbour knocks on the door asking what sort of Christian song is “Bloody Mary”.

You tell him, and you watch as he heads back upstairs to Google ‘Lady Gaga Christian songs’. Imagine the insane reaction he’s going to have when he learns for the first time about the singer whom fans have dubbed 'Mother Monster'.

“Alexa? Play ‘Bloody Mary’ again, the TikTok remix this time.”
