It Ain't About Nothing

It is nothing worthy of mind consumption.
But what is it? What it is no?

 

It Ain't About Nothing
Uriah J. Fields

“It ain't about nothing,” may not be the best use of grammar but it s a wisdom truth that a person does well to recognize to be what it is or what it is not. It is not worthy of mental consumption, i.e., to be of value. It may be consider to be bullshit, what Emeritus professor of Philosopher Harry G. Frankfurt at Princeton University in nis book “On Bullshit” and what this writer in his AuthorsDen article titled “Bullshit.”

When I was a boy, raised on a farm, I attended, more correctly, fed cows - bulls, female cows and heifers. Bullshit from bulls had a stronger odoriferous smell than bullshit from female cows and heifers, even when they consumed the same feed and same amount of feed, as was true especially during winter. I was aware that it was something other than the quantity of feed that accounted for the stronger scent in bullshit from bulls than that in female cows or heifers .It was something that occurred during the internalization process of the feed that accounted for the difference in the scents of bullshit from bulls than bullshit from female cows. One of my chores was to shove bullshit and/or distribute it to fertilize vegetables. Bullshit from cows, unlike bullshit from the mouths of vociferous humans could be of value if needed as fertilize. Otherwise, like human mouthful bullshit it was just a waste.

So when encountering or hearing bullshit, being aware that “It ain't about nothing,” not anything worthy  of mindful consumption a person can dismiss it before permitting it to encrap his mind. Or just say 'bullshit.” This is usually sufficient for the hearer to maintain a positive mind.

Now that the reader knows all about “It ain't about nothing” that's necessary for the healthy mind I rest my case.
