The bummer is we miss so many great little things because it doesn’t conform to the implastic version of ourselves that lives in some blindingly lit menagerie where everything is just so. Where we store the notional version of ourselves that’s never existed.

And who do we imagine all that certainty is impressing? Eventually, you can make up someone plausible, I suppose. But, more basic bitches like me and you are stuck trying to puzzle it all out in a world full of people who’ve decided we’re misunderstanding the world wrong.

Merlin Mann - It takes a worried man.
