Dear Humans,

Most of the time in life you won’t know the answer. You won’t know exactly how to put together the bookshelf you buy, you won’t know exactly how to do the job you somehow got hired for, you won’t know the exact right words to say when your friend is going through a crisis.

And it’s frustrating because so many people claim they have the easy answers for us, and they’re available for 3 easy payments. But we quickly find that those things don’t work as promised, and we’re a little poorer and a little more embarrassed. 

Because life is figuring stuff out. And sometimes we only find a way that works after we’ve tried seemingly every way that doesn’t. And about the time we think we start to figure something out, a new challenge arrives, as if handed down from the heavens, and we’re back to where we started.

Sincerely,

Mr. Curt
