Everything In Moderation


Let us examine:
Everything in moderation. Especially moderation.
You see. It’s a little bit funny till you start to think about it. And you start to realize that language and words ARE LIMITED.
And yet, it seems that language is our vehicle to truth and objectivity.
Moderation in moderation means that sometimes you have to go to extremes. Consider life without stretching to an extreme. Drunkenness, sex, action movies, eating out: all, very extreme.
But then our adage is rendered untrue. Because moderation is contained within the everything that is supposed to be in moderation.
What is a homo sapien to do? Where can a guy or gal go to find a little truth and objectivity?
You don’t do anything. Sans abandon old saws like everything in moderation, which as it turns out, isn’t sharp enough to cut bread.
Nope you just sit back and enjoy the cool sounds and harmonic stylings of that old fan favorite – relativism.
It has everything you need to get by in a crazy world. And if you think it doesn’t, that’s cool daddy-O, just pop open a history book of your choosing and savor the relativism deliciousness and rest easy knowing that absolutism is a thing of the past. Just like sacrifices and cat torturing. Hell we used to know that a bumblebee couldn’t fly!
Relativism – the truth! As far as it goes anyway. Which, isn’t very far but still.
