NEW RULE

Life is opportunity.

On Sunday, Joseph Pallipurath murdered Reshma James. In California, Pallipurath commenced. In New Jersey, he committed his crime. Why? Why regress our culture? Why sacrifice your existence?

Life is capricious, erratic, impulsive, random, and volatile. Therefore, life does not deserve annual attention. One should not carp. One should not sulk. Certainly, one should not plot murder. Life affords incalculable chances. Exaggerating one is asinine.

No regrets is a cliché. However, clichés are invaluable. Depression, suicide, or violence are unforgivable.
