I hear you! I do my best to do things well enough and I keep at them, but I'm not going to kill myself because if keeping at something useless, the effort I put in is useless. When I realize that I quit.
I admire what you did with the fish pond and it made me smile. And to think that you did it in one day! Wow!
The bible also says “turn the other cheek”. ( It’s full of contradictory stuff!)
It’s a complex question & I’m not sure how I feel about the death penalty.
I think texting is detrimental to our communication skills because so many people use emoticons and abbreviations that when it comes to actual conversations they've forgotten how to use words. It drives me crazy when my granddaughters are texting while we're trying to have an actual conversation. I've said on more than one occasion what is it going to take to have your undivided attention. In my home, cell phones are shut off between 5:00-7:00 for family interaction time.
Excellent point! I have to take time out now and then just to say to myself, you have nothing to complain about when compared to others. I have a small medical condition but not life threatening. I am 79, see good, hear good, walk good - no complaints I say. So we do need to remind ourselves how good we have it.
I guess as you get older it comes before us more, like for Willie Nelson in his 90s. Age is a big factor. But, since we have no real control on age, we all age, we must make the best of it.
Blessings to you, and thanks for reminding me how go I have it!
Have fun with these words: random, interception, ingredients, cookies, guys or girls, trees, bear, and berries.
These are a selection of very random words today, Lyn. But perhaps they hold the ingredients for an interesting post.
I have just this minute returned from having coffee at a friend’s house and she had made some cookies. They were straight out of the oven and the house smelled of chocolate and berries.
I’ve completed my story for the What a Character Contest. Hopefully I have followed the rules this time. It’s about a plane crash through the heavily treed jungle. The character is the only survivor. She battles the odds and hopes for rescue maybe from her favourite survivalist, Bear Grylls. She wonders why the plane suddenly fell from the sky and thinks there might have been an interception to the mayday call which the pilot surely made before the crash. She waits to be rescued by the guys or girls from the army search and rescue helicopter.
