I think the journey of self-discovery is never-ending. I myself said almost two years ago that our primary problems were sex (ie lack thereof) and pot. But that barely scratches the surface. I've come to learn a lack of respect is more important over all, and in general causes most of those rocks in my own shoes.
I have no reason to think the next years of self-discovery will be any less enlightening. To me, continually learning and growing make it worthwhile.
Life has loveliness to sell,
All beautiful and splendid things,
Blue waves whitened on a cliff,
Soaring fire that sways and sings,
And children's faces looking up
Holding wonder like a cup.
Life has loveliness to sell,
Music like a curve of gold,
Scent of pine trees in the rain,
Eyes that love you, arms that hold,
And for your spirit's still delight,
Holy thoughts that star the night.
Spend all you have for loveliness --
Buy it and never count the cost!
For one white singing hour of peace
Count many a year of strife well lost.
And for a breath of ecstasy
Give all you have been, or could be.
-- Sara Teasdale

One's wallow won't make a Summa! (2022)
So what do I do now? (2021)
Sooner endure than confront or change. (2019)
Talks loud, laughs louder, thinks silently. (2008)

This was not the post this comment was intended for! But it shall remain here due to the obvious technical difficulties!
Beautiful painting. Much better than pineapples.
