    July 15, 2015

    Former President Jimmy Carter was asked recently what word he would eliminate from his vocabulary, if he could.  His response?  ‘I.’

    I and MY (represent) our self-cherishing ego (and) will lead to suffering.”

    From the classic ’80’s film The Big Chill in the scene between Michael and Sam:

    Michael: I don’t know anyone who could get through the day without two or three juicy rationalizations. They’re more important than sex. 

    Sam Weber: Ah, come on. Nothing’s more important than sex. 

    Michael: Oh yeah? Ever gone a week without a rationalization?

    The Challenge:  Can we go through a day without using the word, ‘I?’
