The psychiatrist closed the folder, smiled, and said to the patient...
"Mr. Haynes, I firmly believe that you are now one-hundred percent cured"!!
The patient immediately broke into uncontrollable sobbing...
"I don't understand, aren't you happy"?
'Why should I be'? He shot back...
'A year ago I was Alexander the Great...Today I'm Nobody'!!!
If you or anyone you know has written a Friday Flash 55...
Please come tell The G-Man.
I will visit, read, enjoy, comment....Then BOOK!!!
So from the most gracious host from coast to coast....
Have a Kick-Ass Week-End!!
Peace...!!!

Very cute and clever little parable. Shrinks have no doubt ruined many a rich fantasy life, my dear. Don't tell!;)
P.S. - We know it's the time of the Moon Madness, but it's all copacetic, you know what I mean?:-)

Well done, G-Man.

Hehe cool as!
Loved your Flash 55. Why is it that delusional people think they are famous people? Why don't they think they are real estate agents, bankers, or teachers?
You can find my Flash 55 for this week HERE.
ha ha ha Really cute dear G-MAn!

Wonderful my friend. I love it...nothing better than being a couch potato chip LOL. Mines up HERE Have a great Friday and a wonderful Labor Day Weekend :)

Mine's here - all the very best to you.

Boomer
Oh you are so good at this.
How sad for this patient, what a height to fall from... :)) Have a great weekend and enjoy your day off, least ways I assume Labor day means a day off work.
It's so hard to be important today.. :)
However, my little offering is up. When I get home, I'll start reading the rest of yours.
Everyone have a great [and safe] Labor Day Weekend!
I needed a joke to tell to my dentist and his receptionist today- Thanks!

That's a wonderful 55, maybe the best yet! I laughed out loud... and think it's perfectly true that perhaps 'cures' aren't what most of us want at all.
I was lazy about it this week (and late) but got going at last, right here.
Thanks again for hosting this fun thing!!
G-Man your are The Greatest! :)
Mine is up...
Bravo!

Hi, Galen! I REALLY got a kick out of that one. Very good!
Mine is up! I am back home in Oklahoma. Will get around and visit some writers this weekend. D
Holy crap Gman, next thing you know it'll get like HNT and you will have over 300 entries a week to visit!
I am so proud of you for turning this into one great big writing fest! The world is a truly better place for it.

Never had a patient who was Alexander the Great - but some other interesting folks.
