I wonder if elephants know they can't jump. Do you think they see other animals jumping and think "that looks fun" and then get disappointed when they try to do it and can't?
Maybe they discuss it. "Hey Gulu (random elephant name that came to my head. Sorry if it means something bad in some languages), can you do that all feet off the floor at the same time thing?"
"Nope, tried for hours and just sort of stood there grunting"

To lead well is to know when and how to follow. Not all things are in one's control.

It’s funny how there is computer gaming and computer gaming.

I mean, I have multiple computers, one of which is a relatively beefy desktop machine, and I have played computer games since the early Eighties, and still play on most days. Even recent games, occasionally, and sometimes even multi-player online games.

But still I read occasional opinions that you can’t game on such-and-such systems.

Thinking this morning about why exactly it is that I adore spending so much of my time these days being with, talking with, and listening to women.

It's not just the inherent beauty of being accepted by you, though that brings my heart endless joy! It's not just the kindness that often defines you, though that touches me deeply as well.

I think it's more about how incredibly valuable your thoughts are...
the mountains of wisdom, perspective and experience, individually, collectively, generationally ~ an evolution of feminine philosophy, both deliberate and passive.

There is just so much under the surface, and it fills me with constant awe. 🌸

Seeing a lot of posts about the #LondonMarathon . I'm not fussed about it myself and as a Londoner (suburbs) I don't travel into London when it's on for obvious reasons.

However the autistic mathematician in me has set myself a puzzle. I know a marathon is 26 and a bit miles. But a road has width. Is it 26.2ish miles round the middle of the road? Or the "racing line" where you take the shortest path round and between each bend? And now I'm wondering if you perversely took the anti-racing line and ran the widest path round each bend ... how much further would you be running over the 26 miles??

what does it say about me and or the times that the first thing that comes to mind while watching a comedy routine where it is mentioned that a kindergartner keeps "shitting themselves"
is not oh they will learn soon enough or maybe they have a medical condition (yet undiagnosed) or in the worst case stress at home but i go right to the best case is stress at home with a sliding scale towards more likely of psychological and or physical and or sexual abuse?????
