The gospel according to Fido
Take the direct route to happiness: Drop all concern with past and future.
Joy
There’s more joy in austerity than pleasure in indulgence. Austerity decides wisely, neither anticipates nor regrets, refrains from unnecessary action, keeps the body clean, lean and relaxed, and maintains a bit in the mouth of the mind.
Ray
Ray Charles laughed: “I don’t regret a damn thing.”
How could the libidinous, drug-taking troubadour say this? Because nothing is damned, everything belongs and a moment spent in regret is a moment wasted.
Regret
Cows vomit their food in order to re-chew it. Men are similarly engaged, are wetly ruminant, when they regret the past.
A moment spent in regret is a moment squandered.
Memories: “The rag and bone shop of the heart.”
