“It Ain’t What You Do …”

0527
The justice and cultural leader Oliver Wendell Holmes
seriously commented
“When one performs a task with care and skill it becomes a ‘sacrament’
But when we do it carelessly and ‘bodgingly’ it becomes a blasphemy.”

“It ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it”

Originally the ‘usage-sense’ was
[and ‘still would be]

“It is not what one does,
it is the way that one does it
(that ‘counts’/’matters’/’is essential’)” .
————————
Today we have unwittingly
(as well as ‘professionally’-deliberately)
inherited a
negativising-derivative
of that ‘sort’ :-

“It’s not that we ‘don’t’ do ‘It’ –
It’s the ‘blasphemously-bodgy’ way that we don’t do it”
(that tyrannicly-lurks all around us)

WHAT ?

We’re speaking of course of our
total-resistance to becoming

“Self-&-Civilisation
Co-Sustainworthying.
Individual human Movement Co-Improving,
and
Wholesome Health, Wellness & Wellbeing Co-Building”
