the blue society

A depressed person can help no-one save themselves.

+++

Making depression and selfishness unhappy bedfellows.

+++

Capitalism feeds off dissatisfaction.

+++

If you have everything you need you won't need to purchase anything else.

+++

The greater your dissatisfaction the closer you come to depression.

+++

The mechanics of capitalism thrive on an underlying drift to depression.

vices and virtues

Vanity and self-criticism are two peas from the same pod.

+++

People love their faults just as much as their virtues.

+++

People would readily jettison their virtues if needs be, whilst defending their faults to the hilt.

++

A fault may be described as a weakness, when it is actually treasured by the bearer as a badge of honour.

+++

You know where are you are with a fault. Virtues are more perpelexing.

shannon airport

Rich US golfers express concerns
At being overcharged. Their golf
Bags are large enough to hide a
Body. In the departure terminal
Young men and women, white, black or
Latino amble, chat, sup a last
Guiness. Wearing desert boots and
Khaki fatigues. Without a hint of
Aggression, bearing fluffy toys in
Plastic bags. The golfers don't mix with
The unassuming soldiers whose quiet
Eyes protest they wouldn't harm a fly.

favours

If one plans on asking for a favour, one should ask graciously, without fear of denial.

+++

Otherwise the request runs the risk of coming across as an instruction, or an order.

+++

One should never give orders to those from whom one might require a favour. Whatever is gained in the short term will be lost in the long.

standards of living

Our society, no matter how rich in comfort, is little more than a pauper in time.

our pledge to you

If you want your life to be a self-fulfilling prophesy -
That can easily be arranged.
