This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Is Occam's Razor the right term here?

What I do know is that people in happy marriages or divorce on good terms are often not the ones making the loudest noise.

While it's true that we should advance at our own pace, what's also true is that we shouldn't get comfortable with the idea that things will always go our way, especially as we age.

Often, having a good relationshio or, better, a marriage is exactly what people need in case things happen that would otherwise leave us vulnerable, and it goes both ways.
