It dawned on me that all the psychiatrists and psychologists have it wrong.

You see, sanity is about socks.

You get a nice new pair of socks. After a few times in the washer and dryer, one leaves. Its gone. Your pair is incomplete, so you borrow from another pair - but now, that other pair is missing one. Eventually, you might get lucky and have 2 pair missing one sock - so you buy another pair, and everything appears right.

But, you see, the socks are not the original pairs. They do the job, but they aren't the actual pairs.

Years pass. You have no matching pairs. To all who view your socks, including you, you seem to have matching pairs. But they aren't.

So you go to a psychiatrist.

They tell you to throw out all your old socks and get new socks. This might actually work. Or they may give you medication to forget the socks. Or they may try to regress you to the first pair of socks you had and move forward.

Here's the secret:

Don't wear socks. You'll save loads of money on socks, detergent, psychiatrists, medication and caramel.

But the caramel is another story.
