I am no longer shaken by the mention of your name

It took me more than four years
because I could not follow the
schedule. Some days you wake 
up late and miss the bus, you 
forget to take your pills, you 
don't pack any lunch, you get 
home so late you skip shower 
and evening prayers, but yes, 
Aldous Huxley was right: all
you need is sixty-two thousand
four hundred repetitions to turn 
a lie into a truth.

  1. Four years? I would have lost track of what I was tracking. LOL. Happy weekend!

  2. I really like the method you have used to list all the worries up to the point of Huxley's wisdom.

    PS. A little typo "schedule" ;-)
