Good News Bad News

Decisions have consequences

These consequences have their own consequences

Which in turn have subsequent consequences

On an On and On and On and

This sequence of consequences does not follow

a Linear Trajectory with a negative slope

Nor does it follow an Inverse Square Law

Nor does not follow the Law of Diminishing Returns

Nor the Law of Karma

Nor the Law of the West

Nor the Law of Reverse Effort

Nor the Law of Supply and Demand.

Nor the Ideal Gas Law

Nor the Law of Conservation of Empathy

Nor the Law of Action and Equal and Opposite Reaction.

Nor the Murphy’s Law.

Nor the Law of the Jungle.

Rather

It follows the Law of Probability!

Which is both good-news and bad-news.

The good news first:

Nobody is out to get you.

Ode To A Mosquito

More deadly than a meteorite impact … but with no bad intent.

A better parent than many humans … your indifference is better than a bad parent’s abuse or neglect.
