Rearranging the Deckchairs on the Titanic . . .



If you know me, you know I love metaphors. I just think they are so cool.

(BTW: One of my all-time favorite metaphors comes from City Slickers, "If hate were people, you'd be China." OMGoodness that's funny.)

Anyhow, Dave gave me this metaphor yesterday and I about died.

I can't believe I went through life without knowing this metaphor:

"We're rearranging the deckchairs on the Titanic here."

It that just soooooooooooooooooooooooo powerful?

It's my new favorite metaphor!

It just speaks to me.

LOUDLY.

About all of the things we do to HANG onto life-situations, people, things, etc., without realizing that "Hay, this 'ship' is sinking, baby. It doesn't really matter where you move the deckchairs!"

Isn't that an awesome metaphor?

(Well, aside from the fact that it references the real-life life/death/hell of 1500+ passengers. That part bums me out.)
