Insanity, with a hat
|
A definition of insanity is: doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting different results.
My friend Charles explains it like this:
- I go to a well for water and it doesn't have any water. I am disappointed.
- I go away and come back. The well still doesn't have any water. I am shocked.
- I leave and come back a third time. But this time . . . I'm wearing a hat!
And yet we all do this - all of the time.
We expect that because we have "put on a hat" that the dry wells in our lives will suddenly contain water. We need to face reality, make the changes we can, and then stop going to empty wells - with or without hats.
Spiritual-religious advice: Don't think that because you are doing something differently that the world will necessarily change.
