Is this actually your reality?
- JoeAltmaier 3y agoIt's not yours? Perhaps the happy lambs don't know they're in a herd, happily eating the clover. There's an old tale, about the Arkansas Razorback, not the team, the animal. How it's wily and fierce and cannot be captured. About how you can capture them, pen them up, if you do it by tiny increments. Anyway, sometimes it all comes to a head and I vent. Have maybe more perspective than some, remembering the time before all those things were true.
- kwertyoowiyop 3y agoIt is and it isn't. I can't control the world but I can control my reactions to it and expend my mental energy where I decide. Is it a little annoying that I have to scrape a little sticker off every apple? Maybe, but on the other hand I can buy several varieties of tasty apples year-round. If it bothered me enough I could choose to live differently.
