Like you, I have many f*cks to give.

The f*cks I give naturally and f*cks I am told I ought to to give, add up. It’s too many damn f*cks, if you ask me. SO, I pick and choose my f*cks.

Which f*cks do I give????

~Well, I give a f*ck about my family, my lifestyle, and an general, my time here on earth. This is inclusive of countless little f*cks that must be given, and a fair number of big ones. Each dynamic relationship of my blended family requires many f*cks. As does, providing for my children, caring for my partner, preparing us all for the future and meeting the demands of right now.

With that many f*cks to be given, its no wonder, I sometimes forget to give a f*ck about actually ENJOYING my family. Something I DEEPLY give a f*ck about.

~I also give a f*ck about equality, equitably, and the value of a diverse humanity. Now THOSE are some HEAVY f*cks.  Some people devote their whole lives to these particular f*cks. I think those people are heroes. I admire them. I allow them to inspire me to use my f*cks in the most practical and effective ways.

YOU SEE, there is a limit to the f*cks I will give. I select my f*cks based on their cost to me (time, money, physical & emotional labor)versus what I will gain from giving them. I will give many big and small fucks if only for the sake of karma. I DEFINITELY give a f*ck about karma.

The next thing about the f*cks I give, is that they fall on a spectrum. I will only give f*cks to a degree. 

For instance, if my giving a f*ck will have little to no influence on a situation, I will give a very small f*ck. Or maybe even no f*ck.

If something requires TOO MUCH of a f*ck, I will decline to use my f*cks. Lest they not be wasted.

 If a particular f*ck will have a negative impact on someone I very much love, I will give a TREMENDOUS f*ck. 

If someone I sort of kind of know is having difficulties, I could give any measure of f*cks however its usually about a moderate f*ck.

I often simply stop giving a f*ck, if that particular f*cks limit has been met.

If I care about you, I probably care about the f*cks you give. THOUGH, it does not mean I will automatically give the SAME f*cks. AND it stands to be said, I DON’T RESPOND WELL when pressured to give anyone else’s f*cks.

Being guilted into giving f*cks is a sure fire way to get me to give many less f*cks. Go figure.

When we respect each other’s f*cks, but retain ACCOUNTABILITY for our own fucks, that’s when the paradigm of f*cks shifts.

So at the end of the day, I cannot give ALL of the f*cks, ALL of the time or the only thing I’de be doing each day is giving f*cks. That would seem me, a bad idea, considering I have a time limit.

                         For this reason, I must be judicious with my f*cks.

~&~

                             I am at peace with the f*cks I CHOOSE to give.
