My Rule of the Three Rights

It seems obvious but then again, everything bears repeating. At the right time, in the right place, with the right partner, anything is possible.

The right time and the right place seem obvious, but the big problem always seems to be the right person.

I've previously talked about the causes of drama. Most people are happy, but some people are unhappy, and that unhappiness can manifest itself as impoliteness, disrespect, and even cruelty to others.

I've previously talked about inexperienced and aggressive males who seem to have no social skills. They seem to be self-centered with no sympathy or empathy for others. They're hungry, horny, or bored, and nothing else and nobody else matters.

Years ago, I heard a man give a speech in which he wondered why he had never managed to find Miss Right until he discovered he had always been Mr. Wrong.

It's a big world out there with many wonderous things and many wonderful people. But to fully appreciate them, one must look outward. One must stop focusing on one's own hunger, horniness, and boredom, and turn one's attention to the world.

The most precious gift you can give someone is the gift of your time and attention.

I like things to develop organically, that is, naturally. You can't force things. Anybody can click on a poseball but not everyone can make it count. And if it doesn't count, what's the point? Sometimes, you click with somebody. And sometimes you don't. If you don't click, you accept and move on. In order for things to work, you need all three rights at the same time. Anything less just won't do.

I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
― Maya Angelou (1928-2014), American Poet

I repeat ad infinitum, or maybe ad nauseum, that I borrow from the 1960s hippies to call myself a peace, love, and understanding type of guy. Be nice. Be kind. Let's make the world a better place. We're all in this together.
