�The instinct of a man is to pursue everything that flies from him, and to fly from all that pursue him.� � Voltaire, philosopher (1694-1778)

God, how true that is for most people. How bored we tend to get when there�s nothing to work for. I notice that when people become idle, they do stupid things. They create challenges for themselves, and then wonder why the same obstacles keep arising in their lives.

Well, I have a suggestion for how to prevent your little self-created issues � get involved with something that benefits someone else. Or wait, I have even another � learn a new trade. Think up a challenge that will actually teach you something NEW, and then, when things aren�t so stagnant in your life, you�ll stop creating the same problems over and over, and inevitably, you�ll grow.

God, how people frustrate and annoy me. Who the hell am I that I think I can see right through their intentions, when they�re the last to know what it is they�re truly doing to themselves and others? I really don�t think I�m THAT perceptive. Which leaves only one option � they must be THAT oblivious. Either that, or they just don't give a shit.

Either way, I�m annoyed.

-Barbarella
