Some Secular Psalms #1

Man is not affected by events, 

He is affected by his perspective on events. 


Your life situation is not your life. 


The trapped think themselves free; 

The free know themselves trapped. 


The amount of effort 

required 

to feel sad

or

to feel strong 

is the same. 

Which would you chose? 


The winner 

of the rat race 

is still a rat 


This too, shall pass. 


There’s always a chore; 

There’s always a change; 

There’s always a choice; 

There’s always a chance. 


Life is 100% Unfair

and as such 

Life is 100% Fair
