Friday Musings

On a Friday evening while waiting for the editors to finish, my mind starts whirling at a hundred miles an hour. So take your Bonamine against blog-hilo and fasten your mental seatbelts.

• It’s ironic that one needs an Other to push one towards independence and self-realization. But it’s sad if one will depend on an Other to be “independent.”
• With enough logic and intelligence one can rationalize any and everything one does.
• Just because it makes sense doesn’t mean it’s sensible.
• We want what we cannot have.
• Not choosing is in itself a choice.
• People who say they are complete unto themselves are delusional. No one is ever complete nor will be completed in this lifetime. Cameron Crowe should be shot for writing Jerry Maguire’s “You complete me” line. The Buddhists believe that souls go through several lifetimes before they can reach the state of nirvana. There’s an excellent poster I once read: “Be patient. God isn’t finished with me yet.” (And the owner of that poster was 60+ years old at that time.)
• People who insist they are fabulous need reassurance more than praise.
• Youth is mostly wasted on the young. At least, that’s the norm in Bed.
• Straight people must lead very boring lives. That’s why they need the gay guy for entertainment and speculation.
• And this above all: Do not forget that this is a Show.

Enjoy your weekend. I certainly will enjoy mine, mwhahaha!
