In response to "Weathering the Storms of Life "

We are magnetically charged meat suites. ... nice.

I sat with a wise-old Swede recently lamenting about my inability to make good choices... or just choices.

I said that I liked Sisaket (in Isaan, Thailand) better than here... He said... then go. What about my loneliness? "Someone there will be attracted to you."

Let it come?

He also mentioned his many romantic failures, including one girlfriend of 3 years who slashed him. *sigh* He has a new one. We met. I like her.

I got this link on Instagram and thought I would add it here: Tom Hanks - This Too Shall Pass

I would never hope that anyone was treated unfairly, but I get the point of his message.

The "this too shall pass" has helped me many a time.

You are wise!

Living in the present is a challenge, I agree, but sometimes it's good to just Zen out the world....even for 5 minutes at a time.

In response to "See The Message in the Misfortunes"

There's a song I think about every time I hear "nothing stays the same." It's by Patty Loveless, and it's called How Can I Help You Say Goodbye. Life definitely changes. I have a tough time living in the present. It's hard not to fall back into the past or worry about the future.

Sometimes living in the moment feels like ground hog day with Bill Murray for me. I keep trying to see the positive but it is challenging.

There are many days when I don't wax so philosophical.

I do think that we are capable of learning lessons; it's just that sometimes I'm a tad slow.

It is interesting how people can have the same experience and perceive things differently. I like this.

I have always wanted to swim in hot springs and I found I was not disappointed by the opportunity in Elsey National Park. I managed to convince some of my fellow travelers to join me. After a good while kayaking in the gorge with SandraLynn Team Florent!

, . nfdarby, BlueMoon

and {user:elusive4lyn, I convinced us to slip into the clean, clear... and warm water of the hot springs. it was heaven and great for the muscles we had used. I also got us walking and if we'd had more time, I would have loved to venture further and camp under the spectacular skies of this 'tropical outback'.
After days in the desert, this was a welcome oasis. I didn't even mind a bit more humidity.

I managed to source out the novel We of the Never Never by Jeannie Gunn (who published under her husband's name - Mrs. Aeneas Gunn). This is what down under Australia means to me.

Alternative option is to write about the average Australian cuisine. How does it differ from our norm.

Craggy rocks line the edge,
As Sweetwater Pool descends
crystal clear and refreshing
After a walk through brush
As dense and fierce as the people.
Take care, mystery bides in the crevices
And lurks in the dark
Beneath skies of starlit beauty.

Thoughts on Australian food... Kangaroo.
Most Australians take pride in the fact that they’re one of the few nations that eat their national animal. Imagine eating a Canadian Beaver.... no thank you. But apparently kangaroo meat is an excellent source of lean protein and it contains almost no saturated fat. Don’t expect to see kangaroo farms though, all meat is harvested from Australia’s thriving wild populations.
I'd try it to say I have... but I don't expect to be a fan.
