stretching the same, down way down

People often say, "I do the best I can." This of course is an untruth but we use it anyway. We use a lot of things to get along in this world and most of them are completely untrue. We weigh our options and select the best avenue to wreck on. Once we have chosen our path, any deviation seems so unreal and unpromising. Doing the best you can is not possible; there just is not enough time in the day.
So we settle for things and placate to those we desire not to placate too. We wind up spending time with people who seem to have the same stretch of road as we do while making mental comparisons along the way. In our settlements we find the time to tell ourselves how well we are doing. But in reality we have closed off any possibility for changes to occur in any meaningful way. We become used to our ways of deception and make inner claims to ourselves that give reasonings to our immobility.
We don't do the best we can. If we did the economy would be flourishing and you would be better off than you are now-we all would. LLc 98.2
