I hate having to do things one way just because it's always been done that way. I get that people feel comfortable with the same old, same old. But is the old way always the best way? Isn't progress good, sometimes? Or a lot of the time?
We give kids the summer off because that's the way our great, great grandparents did it. Why? We add two spaces after every sentence because manual typewriters needed it. Why? We eat turkey on Thanksgiving because the Pilgrims did. Why? (Actually, I agree with that one but because I love turkey and I make the most amazing dressing, but you see my point.)
I have too many things I want to do in life to waste time doing things just because it's the way it's always done. So tomorrow, I'm going to walk on the right, eat the pizza crust first, and have cookies for breakfast.
