Hit Your Mark and Say Your Line

You know, I think life isn't that much different to theory on acting by the greatest actress to ever live. As Bette Davis once said, "You can make it really complicated, you can make it difficult, whatever you want, but when it comes down to it, you have to hit your mark and say your line. It isn't, actually, much more complicated than that."

We spend our live trying to make life more complicated than it really is. Why? I think we think that that gives it more meaning. Or is it the 24 hour news cycle making us crazy? The universe knows that the very worst thing that could happen in the 21st century is for us to lead boring lives.

But life isn't so complicated. Eat and shit. Find somebody to love, hold their hand. Look forward not backward. Hope for the best. Be kind to you fellow man. You know, that sort of stuff.
