#68: Rebuttals At Day-break

I have neglected my thoughts long enough:

I find people use words incorrectly.
"Anything is possible." No, anything is NOT possible. A man can never bare a child. Old women can not become young and NO ONE can live forever.
"Pride is a sin." No, no it is not (and I sincerely apologize to all of those people, religious or not, who believe differently). If one does something that one is proud of, then one should be upfront with it. I understand why sometimes pride is considered "bad," but being proud of ones' self isn't directly connected to vanity. While it may be annoying, it is still not a sin.
"I will never forget you." Yes, yes you will. You'll get Alzheimer's and I'll become another lost memory. A book will find its way to your face or your skull and you'll get amnesia. One of us will move and another person will move in, and years from now someone will mention my name and you'll say "Damn, I forgot all about her."

You're always on time, until the day you're late. You're never happy until the day you are. You're forever lying until the day you tell the truth. He'll always love you until the day he doesn't. You'll never leave until the day you do.
"Words like 'always,' 'never,' and 'forever' weaken your argument."
-Ms. Burke
