It has been a ride and a half mate. :)
Well, what sort of life have we lived, without adversity?
Bland.
We can always do without more, but I'd suggest that we (should) learn far more from a setback, than we do from smooth sailing.

There's an old proverb:
It is impossible to succeed without suffering. If you are successful and have not suffered, someone has suffered for you; and if you are suffering, without succeeding, it is so that someone may succeed after you. But there is no success without suffering.
Chinese also has a similar one: A man learns little from victory, much from defeat.
Japanese, too: Avoid defeat and you will avoid success.

Anyway, that's enough philosophy for today. :ROFLMAO:

What Satou said™!
Every time I see this, I can't help but think of the Chevy Chase (& later Austin Powers) double entendre exclamation, "That's what she said".
Or, the original Edwardian version, "Said the actress to the bishop" (US version is obvs a better fit).
I'm looking for a double entendre that isn't there! :ROFLMAO:

Plural. More Morse Code.


FatGiant, What is best in life?
Oh boy... That's a heavy one.

I could describe a long list of "Bests", but, to be truly honest, the Best in Life is simply live it.

I'm a bit of an improbable hybrid, I'm a Romantic Cynic. But, as we all are statistical improbabilities, up until the moment we happen, I feel that being alive is the Best result in our solution cloud.

You want me to go deeper? Or is this level of the Matrix enough?

Peace :)

P.S.: What does my keyboard brand have to do with this, uh?
