No. There is another one that I like better. Accepting reality. I am not a quitter but there are a couple of things that one cannot change when it happens...……. You really do have to know when to fold 'em. And play it how it lies.

Sinkholes do occur slightly more where the weight of water is. That is about it. And that seems to be followed with the words maybe and sometime.

But for some reason, when adversity falls some folks are looking to find the culprit. Sometimes there is no culprit. Sometimes things just happen......and I don't think they are pre-ordained. Walk softly and stay away from people who are sneezing...……...You should be more worried about Covid-19 if you ask me...if you are older...….
