And acceptance is the answer to all my problems today. When I am disturbed, it is because I find some person, place, thing, or situation â some face of my life â unacceptable to me, and I can find no serenity until I accept that person, place, thing or situation as being exactly the way it is supposed to be at this moment. Nothing, absolutely nothing, happens in Godâs world by mistake. Unless I accept life completely on lifeâs terms, I cannot be happy. I need to concentrate not so much on what needs to be changed in the world as on what needs to be changed in me and my attitudes.
Nah. It just took a hiatus while pegs and holes realigned themselves...wet wood still won't burn and squirrels still make good stew...
Of course wet wood will burn if it's wet with gasoline...

Please do not ever respond to another one of my posts.
I'm not interested in anything you have to say about anything.
If you do respond to anything I have to say going forward on this site, I will consider it harassment and bullying.
Your thoughts are not welcome when it comes to my posts.
Yes, found that very interesting. Indigo was a big deal when discovered. Only the wealthy were allowed to wear 'blue.'
I think this is fascinating, but linguists and people who study hermeneutics have noticed that there is sort of a pattern to the way people of a common tongue identify colors and give them a word. That's what's interesting to me about the Illiad and the Odyssey is that though these are incredibly brilliant works of literature. The society that wrote them didn't have a word for the color blue.
Language and the way we use it, is kind of an insight into the human mind. I think that's fascinating.
With the release of the Jan 6 rioters, they will be emboldened to push more violence onto minorities and women.
They will also have guns now, as the Felon President will allow.
There will be more violence perpetrated upon these demographics as the guardrails are gone. FBI director: GONE. Justice Dept: Neutered. There will be no prosecutions.
Women will be pursued over state lines for attempting to receive miscarriage and crisis pregnancy care ... or die trying.
Study Viktor Orban's rise to power over what was once a democratic Hungary. There will be no more elections.
At the time Homer's Odyssey was written, the word for "blue" didn't exist in the Greek language. That is, to ancient greek speakers contemporary with Homer, blue was not a category of color. The best example of this is the phrase "wine-dark" (as translated in English) that is repeatedly used to describe the color of the sea in both the Illiad and the Odyssey.
