That Life-Changing Thing


This weekend I did something that could steer my life into one of two directions: #1 Everything would change; #2 Everything could stay just the same.
And here's a mini-lesson on the word "thing."

By inserting words that say "thing" three times into the beginning paragraph of this blog, I create not only the most ambiquous claim, but I avert confessing what I actually did.

When I hate the word "thing":
When students use it for lack of a better person, place, and you guessed it, thing.

When I love the word "thing":
When I get to post a blog that marks the biggest potential event of my life, and when I can't keep it in any longer and need to say "something"


I pray your potential life-changing things actually do happen.

  1. Okay, in the past week, I've sorta done two crazy potential life-changing things.

    Spontaneous, much?

    Meh.
