4.2.11 (or, Not The Most Clever Title Ever)

I like replacing words with other words. I don't know why I find this so amusing...but I do. All of these quotes are (supposedly) from Gandhi (who is way over-quoted in my opinion. Then again, he is Gandhi.)

“I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ." 
I like your cocoa beans, I do not like your chocolates. Your chocolates are so unlike your cocoa beans.

“Whenever you are confronted with an opponent. Conquer him with love.”
Whenever you are confronted with an opponent, conquer him with chocolate.

“The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated”
 The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its cocoa beans are treated. 

 “Be the change you want to see in the world.”
Be the chocolate you wish to see in the world.

 “God has no religion”
Chocolate has no religion. (SO true.)

(I actually do kind of like this next one, so I won't mock it.)
"Men often become what they believe themselves to be. If I believe I cannot do something, it makes me incapable of doing it. But when I believe I can, then I acquire the ability to do it even if I didn't have it in the beginning.”

About Me

My photo
This blog is basically how I de-stress from 1.) all the awkwardness I encounter and cause on a daily basis and 2.) life in general. You know all of those little situations and bumps in the road that you don't give a second that about? (No, you don't know, because you didn't give them a second thought.) Well, those kinds of situations tend to create existential dilemmas in my soul. So at some point I will probably give you too much in depth information on my emotional, spiritual, and mental health, because some self-absorbed part of me thinks you really want to know.
