Great quote

“I was walking along the bank of a stream when I saw a mother otter with her cubs, a very endearing sight, I'm sure you'll agree. And even as I watched, the mother otter dived into the water and came up with a plump salmon, which she subdued and dragged onto a half submerged log. As she ate it, while of course it was still alive, the body split and I remember to this day the sweet pinkness of its roes as they spilled out, much to the delight of the baby otters, who scrambled over themselves to feed on the delicacy. One of nature's wonders, gentlemen. Mother and children dining upon mother and children. And that is when I first learned about evil. It is built into the very nature of the universe. Every world spins in pain. If there is any kind of supreme being, I told myself, it is up to all of us to become his moral superior.”

—Terry Pratchett

From my daily motivation app this morning:

I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Just remember how diamonds are made ❤️

It's from a person in a *** server:

“I want you to know that it’s ok to be not ok. It's ok to feel like things aren’t going your way. Progress isn’t always a linear. Sometimes, we need to take 2 steps back to move 3 steps forward. That’s ok. Take it easy and be kind to yourself. You deserve it”

Hi Everyone Good evening 

@Eugene

It is often the small steps, not the giant leaps, that bring about the most lasting change.

@Eugene

I really like the post and the quote I find it very encouraging.
