You know when you’re EXTREMELY thirsty…
…like right after a packed dance class at millennium and you can’t find a dollar to save your life to buy a bottle from the front desk and everyone around you that you’re supposed to go eat with after class is loitering like a muther because dancers are kings and queens of loitering and other people are offering you a sip from their smelly nalgene bottles but you don’t really wanna sip from it because all that’s left is backwash and possible swine flu bacteria swimming around in it…
Well. I was EXTREMELY thirsty like that the other day. I got to Panera Bread, parked, and with an empty Smart Water bottle I found in my car, I ran inside to fill that ish up with some ice cold H2O.
Ok. So you know how when you’re EXTREMELY thirsty and you finally have a full bottle of ice cold water in your hand, all you can now do is suck on that damn bottle like NO other… to the point where the bottle starts crinkling and getting all deformed because not only are you trying to suck all the water out of it, you’re sucking any living shit out of it too. At this point your body just starts getting kinda desperate and you feel more thirsty for some reason… Well I caught myself. And then came to a pause to let the bottle reshape itself into it’s original form. Take two. With some air between my mouth and the bottle, I let the water just naturally pour into my mouth. No sucking.
Though it felt like it took longer to drink that way,
my thirst
was finally
quenched.
And then my glorious caesar salad/creamy tomato soup combo was ready.
MORAL of the story:
Sometimes it’s best not to force things to go in your direction. If you can go with life’s flow, it will naturally start going with yours too. Know what you want and know what you need, but don’t forget to let a little air in every now and then.
Sucking will only destroy.
