Funny funny world

So many times we feel as if we are doing the right thing for the right reasons - only to later realize that the great cosmic joke of life was on us the whole time.

I had a friend - Michael Martin - my first writing teacher - who always claimed he was going to write two books before he died.

One was - "God has a perfect plan for your life and you'll never know what it is"

The second one had a more abridged title:

"Trust God and watch disappointment follow."

So feeling slightly philosophical at 5:39am PST - take this nugget with you today:

Today's circumstances won't mean anything till you look back in three months time.

And even then, they might not mean anything till you look back in a years time.

Heck - three years. Ten years.

There are whole spans of my high school years that I'm still looking for perspective on.

So for today - lets hope that by being an alcoholic- we saved the kid who grows up to be the next Einstein....

Not the next Hitler.
