Good morning, gorgeous. Staring at clouds at 11 in the morning has given my eyes a nice, burning sensation. I'll wait a few hours.

The guy was right in his point: You can't just expect things to happen without cause. He was totally toting cause and effect around like a four-year-old on a pony. And he was right. Sitting on your ass and hoping real hard, in most cases, won't do a damned thing.

The cloud thing is awesome because there's maybe only one other way to alter a cloud, and that's getting in a plane and flying at it. In lieu of that, we have our minds. In a lot of cases, using our minds is easier, and the universe goes, "Alright, sweetie, you don't have to get into a plane. Here's some expanding water droplets."

But if you're sitting around hoping to cure cancer, the universe says, "Dear, you can't get any cookies if you don't want to climb up to the jar. Start moving and we'll see what happens."

I think it's pretty sweet you're trying to teach him how to climb up to the cookie jar. But he's still pointing at the ladder. He doesn't think it's floating to you.
