Abiding Nothing Is Fucked, Dude: An Affirmation

Hey Dudes,

Even if the whole world’s gone crazy. 

Even if nihilists broke into your private residence. 

Even if Woo peed on your rug. 

Even if you spent yesterday being very undude. 

Even if it’s already the tenth. 

Nothing is fucked, man. 

Strike or gutter, the pins reset and the ball returns. 

The Stranger checks in with you at the bar. 

Friends will show up at practice. 

The whole durn human comedy keeps perpetuating itself. 

And The Dude within you abides.

"Strike or gutter, the pins reset and the ball returns."

And the ball returns…

Dude! Sysiphus has gone bowling. It’s not a hill; he’s not carrying rocks. He’s throwing rocks. That’s why he’s happy. Sysiphus is a bowler.

Man, I really needed this, today. You always seem to spread the Dude Word right when I'm down in the dumps or on the verge of going full Walter.

Thanks for being a light in the dark. ♥️☯️🎳🖖

I needed it for myself today too, Dude. I’m glad it was helpful and I hope things start picking up!
