My grandfather had just a grand school of thought.
He used to say, quite frequently:
Point Your Shoes In Another Direction
This is such good advice . . .
on so many levels and for so many things.
You are not quitting.
You are not forfeiting.
You are not folding.
Quite the opposite.
You are smart enough;
brave enough;
bold enough;
to walk away from the nonsense,
the conceit,
the chaos,
the bullchit (another Billy Bots term),
and find a better, less stressful viewpoint.
Sometimes walking away from the argument,
putting distance between yourself and the idiocy,
is the purest and best judgement you can exercise.
Point Your Shoes . . .
