Somewhere Else

The reason that the ordinary are forced to think about all the meaningless things they do, is so that the future will have a chance.

During the process of checking out several mystical schools to see which one he might like to join, a man asked the head of one (with which he'd found some favor), "Are you sure you don't have just a small cancer?"

A man wrote the Glaring Doctor and asked:
”Can't the mystical itself fall into the trap of excessive 'self-reference'?"

 But the doctor found this far too self-evident to bother responding to.
(Well...either that, or he just couldn't come up with a response.)

You don't live on the "cutting edge" unless you think on the cutting edge.  And someone asks,
"What would be 'thinking-on-the-cutting-edge'?"
(Any thinking done beyond your present range.)

 When one man learned what had happened to him, he wrote and said:  "I'm just sick about it!"

Then there was this other guy who sent himself a get-well card...in care of Life.
Life didn't think it was funny.

One man got all his ideas from somewhere else--one man is all men;

One man got all his ideas from somewhere else--all ideas are from somewhere else;

One man got all his ideas from somewhere else--you're surrounded by "somewhere else."
