From the same batch as "for sanity"
I went down the wrong road remembering. That was a mistake, but, except for a slight bruise on a much bruised heart, it does not matter. What matters is not what happened, or did not, many years ago but what I am, today. One I can change. One I can not. What I can not change brings sorrow. Sorrow wisdom brings Wisdom brings neither consolation, nor comfort but a fierce and pain filled joy
