it seems the true path to contentment, even though it's an 'ism'

shit happens, life goes on, pain is an experience not a feeling etc.

nothing is everything

“Life is thickly sown with thorns, and I know no other remedy than to pass quickly through them. The longer we dwell on our misfortunes, the greater is their power to harm us.”

A £20 voucher at Lush is still a £20 voucher at Lush, not 2*£10 vouchers
Pain is a pain
Grinning and bearing is only for those prepared to bear it, not palming it off on someone else at the first opportunity.
You are your own worst enemy if you are not capable of finding someone else to blame it all on
Thinking about it's great, it saves you having to do anything. When you realise you've done a lot of thinking but no actual things, then that's when you need someone to blame. if you have no enemies, that'll be you and if you have no friends it's time to grin and bear.
It's all part of the cosmic oneness, which doesn't matter to me because I flush after I've had a shyte.
