what you want and what you can....two different things...

For instance, the above picture represents what I wanted to do to my alarm clock this morning... yet I'm at work posting this pondering; therefore, obviously I didn't do the unthinkable...take a day off work...really, most of my tired state is self inflicted as I can't seem to make myself fall asleep early enough -- morning comes far too quickly. However, the subject of the title for this posting is a big pondering...its something I discuss with many of my students (repeatedly it seems) Yes, you have choices in life...No, you can't choose to not hand in assignments because you don't like them... or the scenario of ...how would you like it if I chose not to fill in your report card...I make the choice not to hand it in... hmmm...not so much... but yup, one of life's many lessons...what you want and what you can are sometimes and complete opposites of the reality spectrum... as a wise person once said ... suck it up, Princess ....
