  • We are the fortunate few; our mundane problems can be swept aside when we lift our eyes each night, to feast on the celestial delights in the amazing skies of this grand land down under.
  • We all make mistakes, say and do daft things.
  • At the time, these may seem important.
  • But no one is dropping bombs on our homes.
  • Or shooting at us.
  • With time, our arguments and differences fade away.
  • Become dim and distant memories.
  • No longer hot under the collar.
  • So let’s live and let live.
  • Forgive and forget.
  • Accept our differences.
Viva l'Astronomie
Viva bonhomie!
Viva la difference!
Viva La Vida Loca!
Spot-on Dennis....

I think we all need to try a little tolerance and not sweat the small stuff.

God knows I'm grateful for the tolerances shown toward me as I travel through life
