Oh man! I'm an idiot. Of course! You are just trying to escape your paranoia! (Duh!) You are trying to break free from your slavery. That's why you're here on the Cat!

My apologies to all of you who are living lives of drudgery (and for my thoughtlessly reminding you of it). Is anyone out there having any fun? "But that lucky old sun, has nothing to do, but roll around heaven all day." I obviously should have phrased the question better/differently, but I will not take a second shot at it.

I simply forgot what I do to escape. I play and sing folk music. You are all here trying to escape! That's it! (Light bulb going off) And what did I do?....I brought you down...brought you back to reality. I am so sorry!

I wish blessings on you all! Having said that (from the heart), I would add a few words from Martin Luther King, Jr.:

"If a man is called to be a streetsweeper, he should sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted, or Beethoven composed music, or Shakespere wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, here lived a great streetsweeper who did his job well."

I'm sure that each of you can truly say you are your own person (regardless of whether or not you own your own business). I did not mean to imply that you had to own your own business to be so. For those of you who truly feel trapped, break free my friend. Life is too short to be a slave to anything or anyone.

Peace!

Jim
