Transcript:
Kate: What's this scary-looking thing? Woman: The road to serenity...There are plenty of easier, mundane roads in life, but only this one will lead you to true contentment of the soul...it's the leap of faith that stops most people. Kate: How are you supposed to see your way? Woman: By following your bliss. Kate: I don't think I'm ready for this yet. Woman: Yes, I know, dear. Sometimes we just need a little push. Kate: Wait...what?! Caption: To be blissfully continued!

In the philosophy of the dog, anything is worth a sniff and some things are worth a lick.The ultimate faith in the future . It’s called ‘serendipity.’Children practice it every day. Adults rarely do.Pity

First response Varnes, very good. Experience is a strict teacher, she gives the test first and the lesson after.

Is that a little too far? Or what is a push and who? Being somewhere tomorrow when today is usually now.

what is Bliss for one might not be for another. I’ve been offered several paths. what I take from this, “never turn your back on an old lady with a stick in her hand.”

This storyline is a lot like life: I’ve been following it carefully, but it still makes no sense to me.

The road to serenity is straight and narrow. It also has no safety rails.
Varnes over 8 years ago
Gtbank, yeah, but when the lessons end, the only grade that counts is the one you give yourself…

Ya know, wisdom and retirement have a lot in common.Both are wonderful things, and generally you have to get old to get either one.However, I only have one part of my anatomy that has ever been considered wise…And it must be, because a lot of people have told me so.

We grow too soon old, and too late wise!

Wakes up when slams into the ground as a kid again. I did that a couple or 3 times back when I was about 12-14 years old. Dream was I totally believe that I am wide awake, and somewhat older, then slam hard into the mattress, as if falling from about 4 feet, landing flat on my back. Big OOOF, and then parental unit would yell from downstairs(my room was right over the kitchen. House built in 1847) about excessive noise. So, nightmare? Attempting to escape from horrible childhood? actually floating above bed while sound asleep?Now, some 50+ years later, I haven’t got any more of a clue now than I had then
