recipe for disaster
Found this in Tyler's Psych textbook. It's best read out loud in a Deep Thoughts with Jack Handy voice.
The Gestalt Prayer
I do my thing, and you do your thing.
I am not in this world to live up to your expectations
And you are not in this world to live up to mine.
You are you and I am I,
And if by chance we find each other, it's beautiful.
If not, it can't be helped.

This hung on my wall back in the seventies. Funny in a tragic sort of way, huh? No wonder I was so screwed up back then...

I never saw that poem or poster, but I did see the Desiderada and "Free your mind and your ass will follow."
I like to interpret the latter differently now that I'm a Christian.
