On my fridge door hangs a magnet that states, "Everyone is entitled to my opinion!" As much as I would like it to be true in my life, the item has become rather iconic and reminds me that one must be careful in looking at the world through their own subjective"Big Eye."
In a bit of an "ah-ha" moment, it seems in my feeble attempt to make health care a little more pleasant via the blogosphere, I came off self serving and hippocritical. I have decided to be...well, let's say...less angry about the whole thing.
Now, thinking about the proposition for a moment, the question that begs to be asked is, "What makes me angry?" My answer: The "Big Eye" theory mentioned above. I know, it is not a particularly clever play on words...but EYE like the imagery. In other words, EYE get mad because most of the time, the world isn't how EYE see it. That patient in the pharmacy, the person in front of me at the bank, my boss, my job, my bank account, a doctor, my latest medical bill, my wife...whatever poison EYE choose invariably makes me angry. You can bank on it.
So, today I will fill your prescription for your "Big Eye." Choose not to be angry, because the world really isn't entitled to my opinion...or yours.
...take as directed,
Blake
