Certain things die when you count them. I don’t want metrics on my joy. But, I can understand the appeal of the idea: lots of us seem to think that if you force data through logic, you get control. But, it doesn’t always work that way because people are emotional and not always logical. Pancakes for dinner tonight made me happy. Pancakes for dinner tomorrow night will make me sad. And the logic machine smokes and overheats.
