The question “What could possibly go wrong?” is often accompanied by the wry observation, “Famous last words.”
Always consider that the next thing you say or write could be your own “famous last words.”
What would you hope your last words would be?
I hope mine are words of friendship, of peace, of construction and not destruction. I would hate for my last words to be remembered for appealing to less than the best in us. I have been known to let myself down, though, so I know I can’t guarantee that I will go out on a noble note.
The good news is the next thing you say or write will probably not be your last words. I just think it’s wise to consider a bigger picture.
