worry never changed an outcome
F. Scott Fitzgerald, to his daughter:
Things not to worry about:
Don’t worry about popular opinion
Don’t worry about dolls
Don’t worry about the past
Don’t worry about the future
Don’t worry about growing up
Don’t worry about anybody getting ahead of you
Don’t worry about triumph
Don’t worry about failure unless it comes through your own fault
Don’t worry about mosquitoes
Don’t worry about flies
Don’t worry about insects in general
Don’t worry about parents
Don’t worry about boys
Don’t worry about disappointments
Don’t worry about pleasures
Don’t worry about satisfactions

joie de vivre
“Up with life. Stamp out all small and large indignities. Leave everyone alone to make it without pressure. Down with hurting. Lower the standard of living. Do without plastics. Smash the servo-mechanisms. Stop grabbing. Snuff the breeze and hug the kids.
Love all love. Hate all hate.”
-John D. MacDonald

two kinds of sick, two kinds of soup
For the winter hack-your-head-off-sick: Campbells. Mix a can of cream of chicken with a can of chicken noodle, and a can of water. Heat on the stove. Try to stop oozing.
For the other kind: Beans. Ham bones. Celery, onion, green pepper, hot sauce, whatever else you’ve neglected in the fridge, add to the slow cooker. Think about summer.
