What type of thing?
A holiday is always good I think.
I thought what Duchess was saying is she only buys cables made by the manufacturer of her device . . . not third-party or after-market products.
Me . . . I'm like you. If I need a cable and it fits my device, I don't care who makes it or if they make products for dozens of other manufacturer's devices.
Why her post caused me to ponder . . . made me question my mental health and thought process.
Reality check.

To be human is to be vulnerable.
That's my deep thought for today.

I don't want anyone to see that any more than I would want someone to see me losing my shit.

I don't want anyone to see that...
Would you feel that way in a community where people cared about each other?

I don't even want those who know & love me to see that.

I relate to that, but I don't think we'd feel that way in a world where people felt safe being themselves and didn't have to fear being attacked by those who target weakness.

Tonight I visited this place up the road that I applied at years ago. The place is gorgeous. I had no idea. I don't know if I regret turning them down-I had already went to work for another place and they reached out to me pretty late. I wonder what life would have been like had I went to work for them.
One way or another I've ended up here and that doesn't seem to be a mistake.
