its normal crop........................

 

Nobody is surprised when a fig tree brings forth figs.  Similarly, we ought to be ashamed of our surprise when the world produces its normal crop of happenings.  A physician or a shipmaster would blush to be surprised if a patient proves feverish, or a wind contrary.

 Greatest hits, by their nature, are unusual. And if the media you’re absorbing is selected from a billion possible clips, don’t be surprised if you start to believe that the unusual is normal.

It’s not.

-Seth Godin, from here 

Surprise surprise..................

  “It’s OK to be surprised. The world is a surprising place. Just don’t be surprised that you’re surprised about what happens . . ."
