and what they say they do
are entirely different things.

We who lived in concentration camps can remember the men
who walked through the huts comforting others,

to choose one's own way.

Know that there is no single way that life is "supposed" to be.

is a sure fire recipe for a miserable existence.

Life just happens to us regardless of our best intentions.
Our only path to happiness lies in being open
to receiving whatever life throws at us -
with Gratitude. Have NO Expectations of life.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Either way, the storm is just life.
Give thanks for all of Life.
