Hollow, Shallow, Chicken and the Egg.....
So I got a flat tire on the freeway today. And as I wrestled with my cheap ass jack I managed to keep my cool despite the bombardment to the senses that was traffic, heat and dust. Upon completion, just before I pulled back onto the road, a car appeared in my rear view mirror. " What the fuck are they doin " immediately crossed my mind. Much to my surprise, their window rolled down and was followed with a warm greeting, offer of assistance as well as a cold bottle of water. " Thank you... I'm fine " sheepishly left my lips and after a parting salutation the kind strangers drove off. It only took a moment for me to descend back into my cynnical bitter mindset.
So the question of the day is....
does living a shallow life lead to a hollow existence or
do hollow victories lead to a shallow existence...
and no I haven't been drinking.... just a little too much thinking....
