"Tomorrow is a mystery," unless you're a fortuneteller.
"But today is a gift." Is today a gift? Did you wake up and say, "Thank you clouds for raining! I'm so happy to be alive. I have 3 papers due tomorrow but it's pitcher night tonight! Life is beautiful!"
The present is a shitty gift. Return it.
Don't have the receipt? Sell it on Amazon.
Seriously though, the present sucks. You're in college, trudging through papers, exams, and professors that won't answer their email. The weather can't make up it's mind on what season it is. Your boyfriend calls you fat, and when you confront him, he says you're oppressing him.
So don't tell me that today is a gift, bathroom graffiti. Tell me more about tomorrow's mystery, and turn me into Nancy Drew so I can solve it.
When seeing a blog about bathroom graffiti, I had not idea what to expect. With each post, it is so interesting how you interpret just simple sayings on the wall. I really enjoy reading your posts.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you! You don't sugar coat things, and, as a realist, I greatly appreciate that. The present does suck. Today can't always be a gift. You're totally right!
ReplyDeleteI've seen this quote so many times but never in a bathroom stall, its funny the inspiration people try to show at the oddest of times.
