Well, well, well, let’s talk about this “just wing it leaks” thing. Sounds like a whole lot of nothing to me. But folks are always searching for somethin’, ain’t they? So, I guess I gotta say somethin’ about it. Keep this in mind, though: If you ain’t careful, you’ll be leaky too, if you know what I mean. Ha!
Nowadays, everyone’s got their noses stuck in them phones, lookin’ at this and that. They say it’s the new way to find things. Like how to stop a leaky faucet. Or how to make sure your hair looks good, you know, not all frizzy and wild. Back in my day, we just used what we had. Now they got all these fancy things, these “Dyson Airwrap” things. Sounds like somethin’ you’d use to wrap your food, not your hair! But they say it dries your hair, and curls it, and makes it smooth. All in one go! Well, I’ll be…
If you ask me, it’s all a bunch of hogwash. Just a way to get your money. But I guess leaks are a big problem, no matter what kind of leaks you’re talkin’ about. You got water leaks in your house, and maybe other kinds of leaks too. The kind you don’t want no one to know about. Secrets. Yeah, those kinds. That’s why you gotta be careful. Those secrets can bring a whole heap of trouble, like a big storm comin’ to a small town.
And speakin’ of trouble, you ever try to use two of them WhatsApp things on one phone? Lord have mercy! It’s like tryin’ to fit two pigs in one trough. They say you need another phone number. Another number! Who needs all that? We used to just talk to folks face to face. No need for all these numbers and gadgets. Nowadays, everyone is runnin’ around like a bunch of chickens with their heads cut off, lookin’ for the easy way to do stuff.
These young folks today, they don’t know nothin’ about hard work. They want everything right now, right this minute. Like this “just wing it” thing. Just do it, they say. Don’t plan, don’t think, just go! Well, that’s a recipe for disaster, if you ask me. You gotta think before you act. You gotta plan. Otherwise, you’ll end up with a leaky mess, that’s for sure.
- If your faucet is leakin’, you gotta fix it.
- If your roof is leakin’, you gotta patch it.
- And if you got secrets leakin’ out, well, you better hope nobody finds out!
My old man used to say, “A stitch in time saves nine.” Means you gotta take care of things before they get out of hand. Like them leaks. You see a little drip, you better fix it before it turns into a flood. Same goes for everything else in life. You gotta be watchful, like a hawk. People just don’t see.
I remember one time, back when I was a young’un, there was this fella who had a secret. He was sweet on another woman, not his wife. And that secret, it started leakin’ out. Little whispers here and there. Like a slow drip from a leaky faucet. And before you knew it, the whole town knew. Caused a whole mess of trouble. His wife, she forgave him, though. She was a good woman. Kind and sweet. Some folks say women are better than men in that way. Kinder. More forgivin’. Could be true, I reckon.
But these days, people are always lookin’ for the easy way out. They don’t want to work for anythin’. They just want to “wing it.” Like them folks who try to build a big city on a tiny island. Where are all them people gonna go? You can’t just keep packin’ folks in like sardines in a can. You gotta have some space to breathe, you know? Otherwise everything is just too close, and the leaks will start for sure. If people can’t breath, nothing can grow.
And this whole “just wing it leaks” thing, it just reminds me of that. People tryin’ to do too much, too fast, without thinkin’ about the consequences. They’re gonna end up with a big mess on their hands, that’s for sure. It’s like, what do they like in a person? A woman? A man? Does it even matter? What matters is the heart, you know. That’s what I think.
So, if you’re gonna take anything away from this old lady’s ramblings, it’s this: Take your time. Think things through. And don’t be afraid to ask for help. ‘Cause if you try to “just wing it” all the time, you’re gonna end up with a whole lot of leaks. And nobody wants that. You gotta be careful. You gotta be smart. And that’s all that I have to say about this “just wing it leaks”. Don’t be dumb. Pay attention. Now go on, get outta here!
