What if Irony is Judging Others for Lacking Empathy?
The decision
can only be made
by the decision
maker.
No matter how much we dislike
the decision made,
the responsibility of decision making
lies solely

maker.
In much the same way,
the decision we make
in response to other’s decisions
is our responsibility.

are difficult
to work with.

as if difficulty
is abnormal.

if life were easier?
Or is part of what makes life
better
is that it is
difficult?
When we admit
that easy
does not exist
in the absence
of difficulty,

Sometimes
telling someone to calm down
is like telling someone who has to pee
to hold it in.
Other times
telling someone to calm down
is like telling someone who is already peeing
to hold it in.
