The Guy and his Uncertain Future.
THE GUY
I’m happy.
UNCERTAIN FUTURE
I’ve noticed that.
THE GUY
You know… I had tea with a friend the other day, and he said something I liked.
UNCERTAIN FUTURE
What’s that?
THE GUY
He said he saw this episode of Oprah (don’t roll your eyes) where this person, I don’t remember what they were exactly, but some person whose experience made them an expert on relationships and how we find them or build them or whatever… and this person said basically that whatever you put out into the world – like good vibes, good feelings, whatever – those things come back to you.
UNCERTAIN FUTURE
That’s certainly not revelatory.
THE GUY
I know.
UNCERTAIN FUTURE
More conventional wisdom, really.
THE GUY
True. However. There are those moments when conventional wisdom runs headlong into your current pile of experience and seems… well… revelatory.
This was one of those moments.
UNCERTAIN FUTURE
I see.
THE GUY
It reminds me of Newton’s First Law of Thermodynamics.
UNCERTAIN FUTURE
Does it, now?
THE GUY
Nothing is lost forever. Whatever goodness you send out into the world finds its way back to you – just in a different shape.
UNCERTAIN FUTURE
The Redneck Intellectual called again, didn’t he?
THE GUY
Yes.
UNCERTAIN FUTURE
Good for you.
THE GUY
He’s fun to talk to.
UNCERTAIN FUTURE
You’re gonna marry him, aren’t you?
THE GUY
No no no. We don’t project this time.
He’s just… right now… undiminished returns.
UNCERTAIN FUTURE
Ah.
THE GUY
Yeah.
And The Guy and his Uncertain Future sit in silence for a moment, both thinking about Newton and Oprah and undiminished returns. And their air around them seems suddenly alive with good energy (which can never be destroyed) working itself into new shapes, new opportunities.

good call.
Newton didn't do thermodynamics. Sorry, Physics-self kicking in, and physics-me doesn't have a sense of humor, if that's what you were aiming for.
A boomerang...life is like a boomerang...what we send out comes back to us...very karmic...
I wonder why when I'm reading you I can hear classical guitars and birds?
Servicing your air conditioner routinely will maintain your energy costs down. The better your air conditioning unit is running, the less resources it will use, thus, saving you moeny on vitality bills. It is also wise to maintain your unit on a regular basis rather than pay major repair expenses when it finally breaks down. A service call is very much cheaper than a replace the unit call.
