I was listening to a zencast episode the other day and what got to me was the what she said about expecting happiness, because we talk about that a lot in my "small circle of friends" -- ok, there's a quote looking for attribution -- phil ochs'.
on anther subject:
"If you love your work you are either really lucky or really stupid."
- O.B. Joyful
-no, actually not him.
The point was that there is an attitude about happiness in which we think things like, "if I only had___, or, if I could only___,... I could be happy. Clearly this is wrong. But learning this is difficult.

This is an idea blog. The intention was to kick-start discussions about ideas, but it has turned into my catch-all blog. I cannot take responsibility for any posts or comments other than my own, nor for where the links take you. If you are offended by what I say, you can let me know. Otherwise you are on your own. Not intended for children or the thin-skinned. Tell it like it is...

We were taking about stereotypes the otheer night.
