My New Motto
28/02/08 00:16 Filed in: General Stuff
A couple of days ago, my partner mentioned a phrase to me. It's stuck in my head ever since. It's stuck there becuase it's so very true.
"No good turn goes unpunished."
Hell, yeah.
It's been shit recently - going that little bit extra for someone has generally been a pointless exercise that's been taken for granted and inevitably has come back to bite me on the backside. As a consequence, I am currently resenting any form of generosity.
I now have the phrase printed in a couple strategic places, so that I'm reminded not to be so daft and start learning the art of saying "no".
I'll stop there, before I go into a fully-fledged rant.
Some links that illustrate my point: One, two, three, four.
