Quite a while back you posted a quote from despair.com ("Wishes") and since I thought it was amusing, I visited the website.
I love everything about that site. It is so beautifully cynical and perfect. I've laughed for hours on end about one quote or another. A visit to the website never fails to cheers me up.
My very favorite thing on the website is the short video "Addressing Employee Complaints" in their "Spin" section. It is one of the best and funniest things I have ever seen. I about die laughing every time I watch it.
Now, no matter what the situation (it's especially great at school) I am able to remember that "It could be worse."
Thank you for introducing me to that wonderful site.
very heartening comments. thank you ladies. sarah, i don't know if i've ever heard from you before on fingerpost. thanks for letting me know you're out there. and linnea, your creativity has always oozed out. i can't imagine how i offered any inspiration.
why do i like this so much? possibly because it reminds me to stop taking myself so seriously. and that i might not be the center of this universe. i probably don't matter as much as i think i do. something is comforting about that.
I like words, images, graphic design, well-turned phrases, doodling, humor and profundity. These are found in every quarter and I'm always on the hunt. I was rescued (in November, 1974) from guilt and a stubborn irrational belief in an impersonal chance universe (with the accompanying hopelessness). I'm now convinced that nothing is more obvious or worthy of our attention than our Creator and the one true ancient path. Only Jesus has the words of everlasting life. Like John Newton "I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see."
