Mar Mar Don't Blink!

~Tahar Ben Jelloun
Sometimes life seems to kill my laughter. With that being said what about life that kills my laughter? It's the stress of going to work and having to pay bills. That's just a cop out. Almost every adult in America and every 1st world country has a life they must sustain, being themselves or another life at some point in time. I love to laugh, I'll sit at work, as in tonight watching SnapChats of my friends kids doing crazy things and I'll just erupt in laughter and of course I offer and apology, as if anyone really cares.

I love my friends who seem to lift my spirits when they are sinking into the abysmal depths that are self pity and doubt. Then there are friendships gone wrong, abuse from family members, oh some of the woes adolescence brings and love all that mar my love of life.
I think, no I know that I make myself laugh the most. Who better to make yourself laugh than the one that is supposed to love you the most, yourself. I read jokes online, oh the corny ones get me crackin' up the most and then my dark side likes the dead baby jokes.

What do vegetarian ogres eat?
 Cabbage Patch Kids

How do you get 100 babies into a bucket? 
With a blender!
How do you get them out again? 
With tortilla chips!!!

See what I mean? I'm corny and dark, it's a struggle but there's balance to it.

Advice to a Dear Friend

Joshua: "How's work?" Erin: "Can't complain. Running my team today. I get nervous. Learning curve" Joshua: "Oh... Hun, you got this!" “Inevitably we find ourselves tackling too many things at the same time, spreading our focus so thin that nothing gets the attention it deserves. This is commonly referred to as "being busy." Being busy, however, is not the same thing as being productive.” ― Ryder Carroll, The Bullet Journal Method: Track the Past, Order the Present, Design the Future   Joshua: "I'm looking up quotes about multitasking but everyone seems to have issues with it. So my advice is to just focus on the task at hand and move on to the next." "If they need something and you need something as far as learning, just ask questions." Erin: On her iPhone, loves the quote. In my head slacker... hahaha! Just kidding. Erin: "I love your advice. Now that's legit boss guidance, thanks." ...

A Heart Bright Like the Sun

When I came to this crossroad, I met this lovely young lady. She had no face and I could only see her soul. I knelt down beside her and said how is your soul is so radiant? She said when you center yourself, you enter the state of allowing yourself to see all that is good and evil. She was the one meant for me and her soul was as bright as the sun. I took the road to the left and never saw her again. The next day I came back and there was no light at the crossroad but a black heart. What is the moral of the story? This is how I feel. No one is for certain who you will meet at each crossroad of our lives. Don't lose a chance to make something out of each crossroad. Then I picked up that heart put it in the pocket on my sleeve and wore it there for all the world to see. I walked across a tiny wooden bridge where I met a man with no soul just a mangled face. We spoke about the people on this road. We talked till sunset. He said I can give you what you nee...

A Generation Afraid to Fail

Not too long ago I had a conversation with my friend, Professor Robinson of CPCC, in light of the UNCC shooting on their campus. We talked about how students today are afraid to fail and can't handle negative grades or comments. I even get defensive about too harsh criticism but I've failed many times, before. I don't like being told things I already know like I'm in some grand delusion.  Tangent concluded. We spoke on a student that came to him and said, I can't fail, well he was given an option to withdraw from the class and take a W. I've taken a W, it sets you back but keeps your GPA intact. I guess he was in such a hurry to get out he forgot to not party and study. Students are so sensitive now that we have to coddle their personalities because growing up they all got participation trophies from the gaming boards and parents accepted it as okay. "Game theory is a theory of social interaction, which attempts to explain the interaction people ha...
