Enjoy every sandwich.
That was Warren Zevon's reply to David Letterman when asked if he
had a new perspective on life, knowing he was going to die soon of
terminal cancer
It's pretty darn good advice and the truth of the matter is, people
don't eat enough sandwiches. Instead they spend time avoiding them
or making excuses why they can't eat them.
You don't wake up in the morning and find a sandwich automatically
placed in front of you. You have to get up, you have to go out,
and you have to earn that sandwich. And then, when it's gone, you
have to earn the next one and the next one.
But that's what makes any sandwich enjoyable--the fact that you
earned it. A sandwich given to you for no reason is not nearly as
good as one you worked for...that one always tastes better.
There is a moronic saying, "don't sweat the small stuff, and it's
all small stuff." Oh, BS. The only way you can achieve any form
of success is sweating the small stuff before it becomes big stuff,
and when it's big, it ain't good.
Warren Zevon didn't go to the doctor for 20 years because he said
he didn't believe in them. After his diagnosis, he admitted it
"might have been a tactical error," and sadly he was right. He
didn't sweat the small stuff, and it got him in the end, same as
Ronnie James Dio.
But one thing that can be said for both of them is they ate a lot
of sandwiches in their lives, and some pretty darn good ones. They
went out there, grabbed life by the balls, and left an indelible
mark on American culture.
If they'd sweated the "small stuff" a little more, they might still
be doing so, might still be making sandwiches for the rest of us,
might still be eating some foot-longs of their own.
So learn from both of these icons from what they did and didn't do.
Sweat the small stuff, and enjoy every damn sandwich along the
way. You will have a most interesting life. -
