    Or maybe it was you who failed?

    Remember this, my friends: there are no such things as bad plants or bad men. There are only bad cultivators.

    I got back a few days ago.

    I failed, he failed. What difference does it make? It's done now.

    I don't know how anyone could fail their own creator. A true artist would recognize his mistakes and failings and not take umbrage at someone scorning their flaws (big IF there is such a creator).

    New rule for me this year...I'm not going to argue about it, so we can just disagree.

    There's no argument about it, it is a statement of fact.

    It sounds like the ginger breadman rhyme..it goes something like this...

    Along came a horse who wanted a snack
    But the gingerbread man, he never looked back
    Run, run, as fast as you can
    You can't catch me, I'm the gingerbread man

    I'm the gingerbread man and I'm out of the pan
    !
    it may never try
    but when it does it sigh
    it is just that
    good
    it fly

    If a word is there then one needs jusifying why it's there.

    Unicorns are discussed in the Bible also, do I need to justify that reality? I feel no need to.
