    A friend gave me this book, and I'm loving it. I have a suggestion about how to read it. I savor one chapter at the beginning of each evening, right after I light the fire. Then I pick up the other book I'm into. Those nuggets are so delectable that just plowing through the book would be like wolfing down a box of fine chocolates.

    Over the last 9 months I had an interesting "relationship" with a guy at the gym. We only spoke one time when I apologized for staring at him so much (I had an unexplainable connection/compulsion with him) but I kept on staring and we would often work out near each other.. I think he liked but was puzzled by, the attention. I sold my home and moved away, which was already planned - but heartbreaking. The Wilco song "Meant To Be" was a "theme song" and changed over that time. I have an entire list of songs from the gym & local public radio that perfectly represented during and the end that tells the whole story. Maybe I'll write a book....😆

      Interesting what you did there. If cognitive dissonance is the ability to hold two opposing views (often one being "pure subjective opinion" and the other being factual) then, could we call "it's subjective but it's true" cognitive resonance? 😊 (Hoping the term doesn't already exist and I can get credit for naming it..)
