kids teased you on the playground?
get over it

your priest touched you improperly?
get over it

your ancestors were persecuted slaves?
get over it

you were raped as a child?
get over it

your 10th grade algebra teacher
turned you off to math?
get over it

your spouse cheated?
get over it

you had an embarrassing experience
someone you met in a bar?
get over it

You lost your job, the insurance wouldn't pay?
get over it

you are having a bad hair day?
get over it

you will die like everyone else?
get over it
just get fucking over it

Tired of people who can't seem to get over it?

Get over it.

But you're right. The point is, what a gift it is to be here and suffer all the deep pain and wonder and utter tedium..
