It's just another day for me. I was surprised when I looked up Friday the 13th to see the number of people who do have reactions to the date. The only time I think of 13 at all is when I purchase donuts or bagels. Is it a bakers dozen or a dozen for that price?
Dark chocolate is my favorite as well. I agree totally unadulterated chocolate is the only way to go. My husband teases me about a purist. My ice cream unadorned, my coffee black... no sweeteners or creamer for me.
"It would almost be arrogant to assume that out of countless billions of galaxies, each with billions of stars, and an increasing number of confirmed exoplanets, Earth is the only place where life has emerged." I have this argument with my mother constantly

I do like roses - but I think there are much more beautiful flowers out there to choose from. They are almost generic now (maybe I'm being unfair to the rose). I prefer a bunch of wildflowers - I love the unkemptness.
It was the coldest winter ever. Many animals died because of the cold. The porcupines, realizing the situation, decided to group together to keep warm.
This way they covered & protected themselves; but the quills of each one wounded their closest companions.
After a while, they decided to distance themselves one from the other & they began to die, alone & frozen.
So they had to make a choice..
.
Either accept the quills of their companions or disappear from the Earth. Wisely, they decided to go back to being together.
.
They learned to live with the little wounds caused by the close relationship with their companions in order to receive the warmth & heat that came from the others. This way they were able to survive.
*The best Group is not the one that brings together perfect people, but where each individual learns to live with the imperfections of others & at the same time, admire the other person's good qualities as well.*
*Better to be surrounded by 'warm wounds' than be frozen in solitude!!!!!!* 😊
