Be Nice and Be Wise

When all is said and done, when all cunning aspirations are cast aside, all we want to do is to be nice. Yes there are contradictions in being nice, but it’s good to be nice because you can and good things will come of it. Being nice should be a default until someone comes to use your niceness for their own gain. Here’s when you have to be wise. The assertiveness that follows can be nice as well, after all to break your good run of niceness because of a few bad apples is no way to live a nice life. Don’t let people upset your inner calm, and if they do, it’s wise to retaliate with lots of force. In order to be truly nice, it’s wise not to take shit from anyone.

I never think of the future. It comes soon enough
