First, I hope Wiley is safe and well. Second, thanks, Wiley, for this attempt to lighten the spirit. It is badly needed. Third, folks, don’t forget the role of serendipity in the process of discovering oneself. It often makes the difference between one life path and another.
sorry (not sorry) but the word Serenity is perma-reserved lamenting Joss Whedon’s Fox-cancelled waay too soon Firefly TV series, sniff. #YouCan’tTakeTheSkyFromMe
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” – Theodore Roosevelt

First thing on the list is SURVIVING the “road to serenity”.

Bliss….being unselfish and other directed as a goal, divest yourself of material possessions….appreciate all the abundant things in nature.

following our bliss? Sorry, what I do for bliss doesn’t pay the bills. And I kinda like having a roof over my head and food in my fridge.

leap of faith or having faith is just a way to take advantage of fear and ignorance.

Don’t you think the old woman IS Kate?

Yeah, like there’s ONE path and it’s pointed out.
And a 14 year old has a clue what her bliss is. Usually it’s something about catching a boy’s eye.

This broken nose – leap of faith. This leg scar – leap of faith. That bankruptcy – leap of faith. Will I leap again? Sure, I never broke my faith.

I’m not seeking contentment. Turmoil is much more invigorating.

My bliss is eating, doing puzzles and sleeping. No one has paid me for any of those so far.
