sadness... that state of mind that we find most baffling at the most inopportune times...when we think we're about to win but just seconds before crossing the golden finish line we end up having our win taken away by some convenient technicality...

sadness...that state of awareness that those who made a huge fuss over you as they pat you yet when a logical difference of opinion arises, someone you trusted as a sibling drop kicks you as quickly as the employee who thought Borders would always at least have ONE STORE offline. . . 

sadness... that state where a PhD -- who is now qualified to tell us what we should be doing correctly as if they had the wisdom of the ancients when in fact a quick roll in the sack with a tenured official gave them an honorary head nod of  compliance -- tells us to jot down 10 things on a steno pad from the dollar store owned by someone who pays no American taxes yet gets rich off of whats leftover from the fat of the land where at least in writing it says we have the RIGHT TO PURSUE HAPPINESS, and then urges us to "think, Think, THINK ON THESE THINGS... feeling victimized will not pay life's dues.
