Part 16 - edz, just edz

[jim0987]

Hi edz. How you doing? No chilli filled cat related incidents I hope.

Those silly little ideas for plans, whatever they are you should do them. If you haven't read yes man by Danny Wallace (or watch the film if you prefer)

Can you do me a favour on your thinking. Can you try a little word replacement, so when you find yourself thinking about 'the' end, try having the exact same sentence but think 'an' end. death is the only 'the' end and some people will disagree with even that.

Instead of saying 'never going to have a beach body but....' say 'I don't want a beach body but....'

My wife may never love me again, but that doesn't mean I will never be loved again (OK I might not but who knows). I could have a beach body but to be honest I'm not sufficiently incentivised for the work it would take.

Its a kind of stinking thinking when we relinquish control of ourselves and our own happiness by tiny choices of words that are absolute or mask our choices.

And as quoted in that cinematic masterpiece - under siege 2

Assumptions are the mother of all F%&# ups

OK I'll get back in box now
