A Word A Day Keeps the Dr. Away: here's the question...

8/29/11

here's the question...

why is that patience trumps impatience?

We're always told slow and steady wins the race and good things come to those who wait, and blah, blah, blah blity blah. I've been trying to listen to this "societal advice" for nearly my entire life. Not any more! the next time someone insists that I be more patient, I am going to tell them that THEY OUGHT TO hurry up and be more IMpacient!

Eat My Words

I was once prescribed to keep a journal. I was told, write anything down- mundane occurrences, incoherent thoughts, complete nonsense- ramble on and on if I must. I did such and quickly found "what a power there is in words; later for those who hear them, but first for the one who finds them; a healing power, a solution, like the breaking of a barrier" [ayn rand]. I learned that "it helps to write it down even if you then cross it out" [nada surf]. I mean, think about it...most great authors wrote from a place of pain, their words laden with suffering, but through this inked art form I would like to think that a shred of health and sanity was salvaged just by sharing their words. and to that I dedicate this blog.
