life runs on short notice………………………..things happen and rarely are we prepared for them…………………………………we deal with them as best we can and hope something was gleaned from the last episode that will help us deal with the next

often emotion gets in the way of knowledge and we swim around in the dark looking for a worm, only to be eaten by a larger fish that we ran into

you have to be flexible,……………..rigidity has no place in life if you expect to have any peace

i liken it to having a bruised foot as opposed to a broken foot, the ladder easier to get over

try to stay loose, aware, an agile…………………..and you are still going to take some shots

solace is remembering you haven’t been singled out, you aren’t on a wanted list and everyone else is going through this too

keeping that in mind we should be more friendly, because everyone has a rock in their shoe

don’t put another one in, help them get it out
