....putting two and two together... and making five, can't we! Or twenty-two! Or we decide that one of these twos is a 'minus two' and the other is a 'plus' so when combined, they cancel each other out and make 'nothing.'
In such weird and wonderful ways, we miss opportunities, even when they are staring us in the face. Or we turn molehills into mountains and perceive daunting problems when we really face only a passing nuisance.
A sense of perspective is such a precious thing.
Lessons are not given, they are taken. (Cesare Pavese)
