"It gives me great pleasure indeed to see the stubborness of the inorrigible nonconformist warmly acclaimed." - Albert Einstein

I aspire to a stubbornly incorrigible nonconformity. The degree to which I have achieved my aspiration I leave in the capable hands of those whose wisdom and humilty exceed my own.

Stubbornly incorrigible technology

My laptop computer is being stubbornly and incorrigibly slow this morning so I am trying a first for me; posting a blog entry from my iPhone.

I spent some time this morning sorting through some more bureaucracy in my pursuit of being declared disabled by the state. My doctors and family, and I suspect my co-workers already know that I am disabled. Now it is just up to the bureaucrats to concur.

I was dreading trying to sort through this imposing and intimidating stack of government paperwork. I secretly hoped that if I stalled long enough and whined and complained loudly enough it would either just go away or someone else would do it for me. I was genuinely intimidated by the task before me. But I decided to discipline myself into taking on this task.

I made my telephone call and the paperwork was not nearly as imposing as I had thought. I had built up expectations in my mind of this monster bureaucratic nightmare scenario and found that it was in fact quite easy to manage.

And that is how it often seems to go for me. My expectations of problems often exceed the reality. I am sure that there is a lesson here. A lesson for which I did not ask, but will help to cultivate my mindfulness just the same.

And the laptop is still stalled out.

It's surprising the things that surprise- paperwork that goes easily, good customer service, reaching a real person after one button on a phone tree, finding a perfect card on the first try. I'm glad the pieces are falling into place for you.

Thank you Nat. I often wonder if people are really reading my blog or if I am just filling cyberspace with the unheard rantings of yet one more old guy.
