March 26th, 2026: A Brand New Day

 Good morning, et cetera, depending on where you find yourself at this moment, dear Reader, and welcome to yet another undeserved, unpromised day on this side of the Grave. We are so very fortunate, aren't we? 


On this laptop, I'm very grateful to be able to type again, rather than hamfisting error after typing error at a snail's pace on the tiny phone 'keyboard', which is a great thing. On the other hand, there are some limited functions, particularly here in blogger.com, making it impossible to easily insert videos, so, if you'd like to at least read today's Proverb, click HERE. (I've chosen the Amplified translation for today). 

An AI "me into an android" Grok creation based on the photo I provided:


And, since dropping videos in posts here is currently not easily done, I'll just share with you that the first piece of music that came to mind today is Sting's "Brand New Day" and, though not Scriptural, did remind me of His promise to us from the OT book of Lamentations:




(the third chapter).

IDK about you, but even though I listen to the day's Proverb, a small serving from the Book of Wisdom, I've yet to be completely cured of idiocy. C'est la Vie! This is why we keep getting up and trying again, no? 
Time for some more coffee. 

We really like Mark Manson (YouTube). Don't know what his politics are, don't care: he's intelligent, funny, crass enough to be down to earth without overdoing it into downright vulgar territory and (my favorite part!) he tells the truth. Yes, even when it sucks; yes, even when the softest blow still lands like a ton of bricks. It's awesome. He's got this one recent video where he talks about the mental gymnastics that he used on himself to quit smoking cigarettes back in 2008; I've seen it twice so far (which, for those who know me, understand that this means that I'm just barely getting started).
 
Anyway, this is a pic of what you're looking for, in case you wish to watch it yourself:


That's all I've got at the moment with regard to what I feel like sharing. Thanks for stopping by and see you next time. 💗
