I’ve decided to NEVER again “send warm thoughts.” How the frick do you actually send warm thoughts? It’s one of those things that makes sense until you actually think about it. Dumbest crap I ever realized to be honest.
We send “warm” thoughts by CALLING, TEXTING, EMAILING, SNAIL-MAILING, SPEAKING IN PERSON! That’s how we REALLY send warm thoughts. We send “warm” thoughts by touching, holding and hugging.
Say a prayer? Okay, makes some sense if you’re a believer. I get it. And heck, maybe it’ll help.
But when you say “We’re sending you good/warm/happy/peaceful/joyous/whatever-the-F thoughts”? Ya, I get it. It’s better than saying “Well, sucks to be you.” Yep. But actually SENDING WARM THOUGHTS? You ain’t sendin jack crap when you say that.
Want some more proof that “sending warm thoughts” is meaningless? Do a Google search for “warm thoughts” and then look at the images. Holy cow, it ranges from chicks in bikinis on a beach to kittens to the most abstract crap you can imagine.
Now do a Google search for PRAYER and see what you find. At least it makes sense!
This is my revelation – no one prompted me to come up with this. So all I’m gonna say about it is this. You do whatever you want. I’m not on some campaign to “see who will join me.” It’s just that I realized I’ve “sent warm thoughts” hundreds of times over the years. It’s honestly GOT to be one of he dumbest-ass things I’ve ever repeatedly done – “sending” warm thoughts. Please. So I’m vowing to NEVER again send anyone “warm” thoughts.
I may say a prayer and I sure as heck won’t wish ill on any of my loved ones, family, friends etc. But to say some worthless cliche about sending thoughts? No, I’m done.
Let’s call this my 2012 Commitment – not a resolution. Resolutions are rarely followed to successful completion or fruition but a commitment? Ya, can be very powerful if it’s real. And oh, it’s real! 🙂
