Funny.

While some might interpret the message as sarcastic or negative, that is not the point. It is a reflection on reality of the multidimensional nature of being a human being. Salient points are “funny how you’ll be the same way in way in one moment if you let yourself forget for one moment you the same way” and “funny how sick we can get, and how quick we forget how sick we can get”–serving as reminders (to myself first) that within each of us is the potential to have the characteristics described in the first part of the piece—- to be oblivious, to be heedless, etc.—so it’s not so much about pointing fingers at the world and the external but at oneself–and the necessity to be on guard and to strive for a certain level of self-awareness.
