As Essential As Sex

I dont care how old a man is, whether he has a family or not, or whether he has a fast car or not. I do however know that it is essential for the nourishment of a mans soul, to once in a while put his foot down and race a fellow road user for a crazy few minutes. Childish ? Dangerous even ? I remember a time when people could weigh up sensibly the risks of their actions and have a little fun accordingly. Today I did just that. Even if it was a silly 60 seconds of trying to regain my lost youth, then I feel the brief exercise has been worthwhile. Two men had a smile put on their faces for a few minutes this afternoon, and I think thats a rarity nowadays. Job done !

A Spoonful Of Sugar....

This is not as crude, or as stupid as it sounds. There must be a point where its healthy to let go of whatever were struggling with. I would never suggest giving up as that's lazy, but maybe there are times when we need to  move on to tackling the next task in hand. Getting stuck in a rut and obsessing about achieving a goal can lead to serious damage. I admit its one of my weak points, or maybe its a strong point ? I guess there is a fine line between the two, and I don't know anyone who can judge at exactly what point it is that their perseverance starts to cost them a little more than that which is healthy.
