Life becomes easier when you learn to accept an apology you never got. - Robert Brault

One of the happiest moments ever is when you find the courage to let go of the things you can not change.

"The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway. For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway."—Mother Teresa

My daughter the Perfect Enough Child shared a really odd one with me. She worked the Whole Earth Festival at UC Davis this past weekend (we all used to until we the ranchers left Davis, CA) and Alan Miller, one of the coordinators, was ranting about how "open" the Karma Dome (the very large dome tent used as the base of operations, communications central, Karma Patrol crash space and safe decompression space) is, to the point where it's starting to be a known pilfering spot. The year before we left, I was on staff as "Dome Mom" - and I don't think anything got pilfered that year.

"People have learned that they can just come into the Karma Dome and take whatever they want. It's a trust problem. These people are too trusting! If trust were f*rts, these people would be letting it out of their- I don't even know where I'm going with this metaphor."

There's a place inside that you must keep inviolate. You must keep it pristine. Clean. So that nobody has a right to curse you or treat you badly. Nobody. No mother, father, no wife, no husband, no ~ nobody. You have to have a place where you say: "Stop it. Back up. Don't you know I'm a child of God?"

Dr. Maya Angelou
