Boston public transit is fucking terrible in the winter. You’d think a city crippled fortnightly by snow every winter would get their act together a little faster than 400 years. I guess business waits for no man while the Everyman waits for the bus. I can’t wait for the day when they privatize this shit and sell it to Zipcar.

I am of the opinion that you only ever own 2 things in this world: Your thoughts and your behavior.

You need both to live, but both govern each other in a way that’s sometimes too subtle to realize.  It’s like the check and balance system of the mind and body.

If you find your thoughts clouded, try changing your behavior.  Your thoughts may follow.  If you find your behavior consistently at odds (in a dangerous way) with the reality around you, try a different perspective.  Your behavior may follow.

Here’s an exercise to try: If you’re in your car today, stop for every pedestrian you see waiting at a crosswalk and watch them.  It’ll help you figure out a way to get cars to stop for you when you’re a pedestrian.

As a rule, you should always do what you think is right and that will always be okay with me.

But it is also good to think about ways of being equally right and not getting fired.
