If you have dense breast tissue, this is something to consider speaking to your health provider about. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC... Automated Breast Ultrasound Screening for Dense Breasts - PMC

That's a good mindset to have. Pair that with patience and persistence and who will be able to stop you?

This is a MUCH better version! Like, wow!
They were showing off M. Dragonite like it was the pinnacle, and you came with this!

Love that you took the angelic concept to the max. It's just so good!

I was saying to my friend last night that all it takes is for someone to make the first step.

There were other countries before, but this is the first "big" one.
The first step is always the hardest, but always the most crucial. The next steps will hopefully soon follow.

I think confidence is more being comfortable with your knowledge and abilities. If you don't know something, you don't feel slighted by someone who does or by you asking.
Curiosity instead of arrogance. A willingness to laugh at yourself. Understanding. Traits that are constructive and endearing.

Forgiveness is complicated. It's a virtue in many cultures, but its application is varied. Who is worthy? What can and can't be forgiven? Can the transgressed seek justice?

I think that forgiveness must be asked for. One can make peace for themselves, but true forgiveness is person to person.

Why did I start reading it?
Honestly, boredom. I remember hearing in like college that there was a story for it (I only knew about the Strauss piece then), and for some reason I thought about it and looked it up.

Okay, so... I started reading Don Quixote for the very first time a few days ago. I'm enjoying it!
There are a few pieces inspired by it, this is one of them:

It's actually kind of cool to be able to read the inspiration and hear the composer's interpretation!

Maybe this is a silly take. I just think sometimes politics is too personality driven.

When do we start following the idea instead of the person?

How can we attach an idea to only one person? A person who will, at worse, act counter to those ideas.

Take the good, leave the bad, watch the hands (actions/money).
Leaders cannot be infallible, beyond reproach, or unwilling to change.

Where was this technique when I was a kid?😂

Sometimes I think of this song. Not the version I know, but it's nice.

It makes me think about the future. And even in these times, I still can see a world of good. How we'll get there, I'm not sure. But I know we will if we can let our actions be guided by compassion.

To be clear, I know it in Eb too, and I can learn it in Db (even if I don't want to)...

But I learned it in C! I just want to do that!😭

Me and my partner had a *polite disagreement* on what key to play this piece in. I learned it in C, but "allegedly" every band plays it in Eb.

Well, I found one that DIDN'T play it in Eb (more like flat Db), and now we should play it in THAT key!

WHAT'S WRONG WITH C???

I have finally decided to release myself from my mind cage.

It's easy to trap ourselves into feeling like a passenger in our own lives. It's natural (especially these days).
You should go on autopilot if you need to rest, but always to go back to the helm.

Today, I will be the capitan.

If you in California and want this going forward, you can leave your public comments by April 25th here for it. Measure 25-0002, second on the list.

Me too. People were crying about their rights without understanding they were ruining lives.

I think there is hope. Some people are starting to see that it can't just be all about themselves. We all have the responsibility to protect and participate in society.

Being anti Black costs

~We could,ve had it aaaaaaall~

Wow! That is amazing!!!
I hope whoever thought of that has nothing but good days ahead!🤣

Don't you hate it when you planned to rest, but someone throws work on you last minute because they forgot to tell you and now you have to scramble to get it done before Tuesday?

It's a good thing I like my work.😅

Anyway, Happy Friday! Stay engaged! Check up on loved ones!Have a lovely day!💛

That's a good one. Might have to get that on a t-shirt, lol

Exactly. Your sin, YOUR problem.

I don't really understand why so many people put so much importance on a thing they don't read or in a faith they don't understand.
If all Christians strove to be Christ-like instead of twisting the bible to fit what they want to do, the world would be near perfect.
