School




When you're a student, it still feels like something exciting might happen at any moment.  Life feels full of all this potential.  But when you get out of school, that potential just doesn't seem to be there.

I think we're always in schools.  Some of us are in family dynamics school.  Some of us are in how to cope with bullies at work school.  Some of us are in cross stitch school.  Some of us are in the school of hard knocks.  And the theme song for that school is, "It's a Hard Knock Life."  The math shows us that life is always school.

(hard knock) x (life) = (school) x (hard knock)

If you divide both sides by hard knock, then you get life = school, right?  Isn't that how math works?  If so, I have proved this.  If not, then I have proved it because I still am in the school of learning how math works.

So, nuh-uh, Hillary Frank.  If that is how life feels to you - like something exhilarating isn't about to happen at any moment - well, you're not doing it right.
