It's Hump day. The middle of the workweek. Our copier machine decided it wanted to be an aggravation today and it somehow sprayed black ink on my pants. Plus, it jammed some papers over and over. Looks like I will be making another trip to the dry cleaners.
Lately, I've had these recurring headaches. They usually start around 9 or 10(the times I come to work) and they die away. Then, they return after lunch hour. I take extra strength aspirin but it never makes it go away. I'm worried that I may have 1) a brain tumor, 2) an alien embryo growing in my head that will eventually burst out, killing me in the process 3) stress
I think I would prefer the later. I have been stressed lately. Mostly about things I can't change about my life and some things that are too complicated to change. I wish I had access to a Time machine, I believe that my life would be totally different. Wisdom, when applied at the right time, can bring about a major impact or change. Of course, I would never want what happened in Butterfly Effect to take place. Geez, in that particular, this guy had the ability to change the past, but whenever he did, it brought two results, one good and another really bad. Or maybe my life should be like a Windows-based computer. When it "crashes", I can always hit "CTrl+Atl+Del" and everything starts over just the way it was before it "crashed".
Reality check: This is the way life is. There's not turning back after the consequences and results. There is not control-alt-delete ingrained command. There is no special ability of manipulation of the space-time continuum. There is no way to change the past. The past is static. However, the future is quite different. It is dynamic, always changing according to the actions of the present. It seems that people have always have a fascination about controlling the past, but little fascination with controlling the future. Granted, one can't change the future, absolutely per se, but they can attempt to bring about the desired yields by goals, aspirations, planning, effective use of wisdom, etc.

Actually, the past is not static. It is possible to change the past, just not many people know how. I do, though, and as my "simple act of kindness" for today I have made the appropriate changes. If you will go look you will find that your pants are no longer soiled.
Donating the cost of dry cleaning to something worthy will be sufficient thanks.
Okay, that really messed things up.
Look. I'm sorry but I had to put your pants back like they were. I..I had no idea. I mean it was such a little change. I still don't understand how your pants could have caused...well anyway, I'm just sorry, you know? I should have left things alone. I'm sorry. Just get them dry cleaned. Soon. Seriously. Don't put it off, okay?
I have frequent, reoccurent, persistent headaches too. I think that it's just stress, Kevis, don't worry about it.
Ah, yes...life would be wonderful if there was a CTRL-ALT-DEL button,wouldn't it?
Problem is Jehovah designed time to flow one way and one way only.
Tell me,what do you think would happen if everyone tried to fix everything bad they ever did with a time machine?That's why we don't have them. It's better to just live with whatever stupid thing you've done. I guess it keeps us aware that there are severe consquences to our actions, some good,some bad.
Jeez, I just noticed that you have a lot of the same thoughts I do.I was thinking about this a few months ago.
Awesome,huh?
Always yours,
Diane
Oh yeah, when I say "you", I don't mean you,per se, Kevis.
The context of the word you is supposed to be like "when ONE does something stupid".
Just making sure you picked up on that.
(*lifts an eyebrow at the Dogfish* i don't think you'd told me you'd seen that movie. . . .)
Sorry about your pants, dude. That's terrible.
A Ctrl+Alt+Delete on life. . . . Sounds very appealing. It's a shame that isn't possible.
Good luck with the coming week!
