On the Rocks

I saw a rock today that had inscribed:

“PERSEVERE”

And it just was one of those things that hit me when I needed it. I said aloud, ‘Thank you! You are so right!’

To a rock. I was talking to a rock. 

I decided I wanted to buy it. I would put it somewhere in my home to give me strength, to remind me to persevere, to inspire me when things were rough.

I picked it up and then saw that it was forty bucks.

‘FORTY smackeroos? Are you kidding me? This is just a stupid rock!  What do I look like, an idiot?’

Again. Talking to the rock.
