Erasure...

If a person is the sum total of their experiences, and we try to remove one group of experiences from our minds, do we become a different person? Less of a person? If you live a life without regret, and then taste how sour it is, yet cannot get the taste out of your mouth, what do you use for a rinse? Is being alone a self-fulfilling prophecy? Is that a wish that the universe freely grants to those unsuspecting of what they are really asking for?
[I did tell you.]
Contractor: "My dream is to one day become a regular employee."
Catbert: "My dream is to eat candy and poop emeralds."
Catbert: "The difference is that I'm halfway successful."
[But that does not mean I]
Y'know, it would be fun to remember Catbert's part of this conversation and use it liberally...
[wanted to be right.]
Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment. -- Buddha
[Enjoy your day.]
I didn't feel like making up anything original today...
