I think people come into our lives to teach us specific lessons. Lord, have I had an exhaustive education in my life! Lol. It's my favorite proverb. I found it in 2011 when I was writing my best man speech

That sounds like it would be a real challenge. You'd almost need to sell it off a truck or start a subscription service. We have one here called Brake Bread that does all their deliveries on cargo bikes.

That would be wonderful. I haven't been to a 'Fest since Lisbon in 2017. I hope HiveFest is in Europe again next year. Thank you @zirochka! We appreciate it. I hope you have a good week.

Thank you Nancy! I bet that was tough, having different aspirations from those people around you. Only a small percentage of people have that capability of dreaming beyond their current conditions and

This looks wonderful! I need to get back to baking again. I just bought a loaf of einkorn sourdough bread and plan on trying it this week. I've never tasted einkorn before.

You can already feel the transition to autumn here! Yesterday was the first day I noticed that coolness in the air and the maples leaves are just starting to turn.

I like that old Swedish proverb, "Shared joy is a double joy; shared sorrow is half a sorrow". I believe life is better with someone to share it with but it has to be the right person, if not

Wonderful! I'm very glad you'll be able to make this happen! I was hoping be there this year as well but it's not in the cards for me until my wife fully recovers.

That feels amazing. I, especially, need it because of all the coffee and tea I drink.

I can't believe how much better the quality of some of the products are. It makes a difference when people actually have pride in what they're doing. Nice! I use an ultrasonic toothbrush so I just use

Nature is both fascinating and amazing. You took some great shots!

Great!

Oh man, at least you got a great story out of the ordeal! I despise having to call any customer service departments now. You have to set aside at least 30 minutes for the call and that's if everything

I love how yoga make you more aware of and deepens the relationship you have with your body. I've always tried to keep a pretty strict workout routine (cardio, yoga/qi-gong, strength training) and have

That's true. Authentic merch in Ireland wasn't cheap. When I was in London in 2019 I got my mom a packet of flower seeds collected from the gardens at Westminster Abbey and my nephew loose leaf tea from

Very true! Real honey works great to heal wounds too. Oftentimes a cut won't even scar if you apply honey while it's healing. Thank you, @honeydue. I try to stay positive, some days that can be a challenge

Did you unload trucks? I did that for a while when I was younger.

I was really motivated to work at a young age so I could buy things I wanted.

Looking back I'm most grateful for the "demanding bosses". They taught some great lessons.

It was such a different time back then in America! Men of my dad's generation were tough and had grown up during times of great adversity. A lot of their traits would be considered "toxic
