Why is it that 2 wrongs don’t make a right but 3 rights make a left?
When traveling up north (I’m from Texas) I came across those crazy cloverleaf’s on the road. They are so completely confusing to us southerners who are used to simply making a left turn that I couldn’t wrap my head around them for the longest time. If you look at it from overhead, like from […]

Everyone thinks of changing the world but no one thinks of changing himself.
The World is Falling Apart! – Look at all those crazy people on the other side… if only they would… (insert complaint here…) We all do it. We look out upon the world and see what is going on; watch the news, read the papers, listen to the rumors and we all feel like […]

Tomorrow – a mystical land where 99% of all human productivity, motivation and achievement is stored.
I’ll do it tomorrow. The day just isn’t long enough. I don’t feel like it today. I’m too busy. It can wait. We’ve all said it. We’ve all done it. We all are guilty of it. But instead of accepting it as fact and laughing about it as if it is perfectly okay to do […]

Your imagination may resolve a fight but you may forget to tell the other party.
That is what my horoscope said the other day. It didn’t necessarily correspond to the situations of that day, but it is SO me!
