Java Zen:Thinking Out Loud Monday, 2025.06.30 
One must be careful not to lose one's own personality in any joining. The idea
is integration, not assimilation. No matter what can be achieved in joining with
others, it is wise to remember that we each walk this path independently. The
ultimate truth of the journey and its final rewards are still for each of us to
face alone.

What A Difference A Door Makes

Wow.

I’ve wanted a new front door for 14 years. It was always on the plan…for next year. It closed. It locked…mostly. And there was always some other priority. Usually something cancer related. So it stayed. Today, that changed. Before…

And after (but still untrimmed and unpainted)…

For the first time ever, my front hall is filled with natural light in the evening. It makes it look and feel more like a home than it has in near 4 years. Maybe there is hope yet for this house of busted dreams.
