Be careful what you wish for, you may just get it!
Be careful what you pray for, you may not get it!
I was told by my aunt a very long time ago “God only has 3 answers: yes, no; later.” If you’re tired of hearing “no” or “later”, then start asking “yes” questions. Or better yet, simply say “Thy will not mine be done”.
I remember telling a woman one time that women don’t have the best taste in men*. She obviously took offense. Was it she who should have taken offense or men**?
I think the body… I’m told it takes a body about a year for the cartilage to strengthen and harden in the gym. My experience is that my body doesn’t start increasing in strength games right off the bat. If it did I would end up injuring my cartilage/joints.
They say you come full circle. That you peak. Then declined. I’m 57 years old. Where do you think I’m at physically in my youthful years has an equal? I’m thinking 15 maybe? And when I’m 64/14ish? 71/11ish? 78/10ish? 85/8ish? 92/7ish? 99/6ish?
*Don’t look at me -take a pole of women who suffer from repeated disappointment and regret regarding their relationships. The real point of course isn’t trivial. Either some women have poor taste or some men have some growing up to do -I know I still do. And for much of my youth you could say, given some very poor examples, and advice, I would not have been considered a “safe-bet”. 🤷♂️
I had a cop tell me one time “Who are you!” My response, “Just the same as you!” And now that I’ve answered your question, you can tell me who, or what you think I am.
People who don’t have any humility about themselves don’t stand a chance against people that do when it comes to owning up or seeing one’s self right-sized, realistically.
**Some Alcoholics are not happy taking offense personally -they have to take offense to something said to someone other than themselves! I learned this at MVH doing the groups. So many things!
