"Difficulty is the excuse history never accepts." ~Edward R. Murrow Excuses are like buttholes, we all have them and they all stink. But is that true? Are there "good" excuses? Some may respond it's not an excuse it's a reason. Sematics. Maybe the definition of an excuse should be an obstacle we are either unable to overcome at the time or so choose to not conquer. I don't know. . . I'm just typing . . . wishing I had a glass of wine. Lol that's my excuse for not embracing this prompt the way it deserves. . . I have no wine. Wine = Muse. Not really. . . Actually, I can't remember the last time I had wine. Sigh, but it does sound good. So history never accepts an excuse, Mr. Morrow? This is one of those quotes that makes me want to find an exception. You know, like "i" before "e" except after "c" and in wEIrd cases. But honestly, history isn't my strong suit. Scary since I'm certifified to teach it. don't freak out, I don't teach it. Really, I'm pretty upfront. . . not a big excuse person. Maybe too brutally honest. I didn't come to your party . . .well, because I didn't want to. ouch - no, I'm a little nicer than that. "I didn't work out", because I'm lazy. "I don't have money, because I'm not a good manager of it." Excuses, or truths? Is it the same thing. I'm going to sign off before my head explodes and I die without any zinfadel wine in my system.
