10 axioms to have fun in the 21st century

Author: Babar Mirza

* Everybody knows everything.

* Nobody ever says anything except about himself or herself.

* Desperation is the source of all evil.

* Always go with the flow but empower yourself to change its course where necessary.

* Nothing big can be done in secret.

* Man without woman, and woman without man, is only half a human being. This is the only way to ensure love and equality.

* It’s always a ghost that possesses a human being. A human being has never been known to possess a ghost.

* Have at least three reasons for choosing or doing anything important. It’s called moral certainty, as opposed to mere logical certainty.

* Never flinch.

* We are all in the same team here. Give love and respect to all by default, and help them rectify their mistakes rather than hate them for it.
