Today's Wise Words

My verbal panacea... in any situation... doesn't necessarily convey acceptance... or rejection... just quiet realisation of where the chips lie:

it is what it is...

Today I had to accept that and just move on...

Did I wanna? Oh hell no!! I wanted to sound an alarm and call a whole goddamn infantry!! But that wouldn't change a thing. Fact is...

it is what it is...

I wanted to fight in futility for all I was worth... kick and scream and throw a hissy fit... make somebody pay for the foul mood I was in. But that wouldn't change a thing. Fact is...

it is what it is...

Every cell in my body said war! Fight the obvious, unchageable truth! Fight, dammit!! Fight!! If only to feel like you did something. But that wouldn't change a thing. Fact is *sigh*

it is what it is...

I'm curious too...what makes Ruthibelle want superpowers? Cute shoes and no money?
Jah kno, I wonder if circumstances can really get tougher than that! Kidding!

I am glad you have a calming mantra though - I know it can only help more than harm.

Ruthibelle,trust mi,Iman nah try fi sass you in a manner, shape or form.On the contrary,I was just trying to point out or draw your attention to the fact,that the word or term WHATEVER can be viewed,perceived,utilized,employed and construed in a somewhat similar manner to your verbal panacea " it is what it is " suggesting neither acceptance or rejection.If my posting of the term WHATEVER was not comprehended contextually, and understood in a different manner,I apologize sincerely for any hurt feelings/sassing.Incidentally,you are one of my favourite blogger,and I eagerly anticipate your post.Nuff respect!!!ESTEBAN AGOSTO REID

And see, it took a whole post for you to explain that... of course I didnt get it!!!

I get it now tho. Thanks for explaining.
