It's been awhile....

A month, wow!

A lot has happened, and normally, in the past, I would have written about it. Maybe it's my age, or my tiredness, but I am just too tired to write, or think anymore.

What is wrong with the world today? Why is there so much stress, apathy, anger, rage, pettiness, idiocy...Ask a rhetorical question...

I guess there has always been stress. From the time we discovered we were not alone, we worried about where to eat, sleep, live, procreate and with whom. It's a never ending stream of what if, where, how, when, unless you just give it all up to the universe to sort out, as it will eventually.

So, why worry? Don't panic. Give it up to your higher power. Chill out. It's always five o'clock somewhere. Now, if I could just believe the platitudes. I sort of have to in a way, because I pass them on to my students everyday. I have to let them know it will all work out in the end (not), that the world is fair (hardly), that if you put in good work you will be recognized (whatever).

In the end, it comes down to one of those sayings I like to dwell on - to thine own self be true - no matter what. And, make sure to be nice to your cat.
