George's Journey

(One of George's acquaintances calls to meet George at the Coffee shop. The reason; he's a little down in life, no date for a few months etc, wants to meet George to make himself feel good. George agrees to meet but not very flattered about it. Meanwhile...)

George: So, he thinks I am some kind of a veteran loser and wants to seek my advice!

Jerry: How about, may be, taking it positively?

George: What are you, Oprah?

Jerry: Well, by asking you to reach out to him, he is accepting who he is, why can't you do the same?

George: No way, I will never accept who I am. Out of the question.

Jerry: Boy, you REALLY broke up with yourself.

George: What good is it anyway, accepting who I am

Jerry: Well, as per popular wisdom, knowing who you are and accepting yourself are considered Stepping Stones to success

George: Oh I know who I am...and that's why I don't accept. Who steps on stones these days, anyway!

Jerry: I understand but Stones aren't a discontinued model yet, there are no stepping escalators or anything. You HAVE to step on them to get in to luxury car model called Success which is supposed to be a great vehicle for life's journey.

George: So, what car do you think my life is journeying on?

Jerry: Car? More like a Cart, pulled by a couple of Mules, not much motivated about their job, going uphill, rocky road...

 George: Thanks, thanks a lot. (pause). What about Kramer?

Jerry: I don't think his life journeys
