Today there are too many broken or blended families. It isn't unusual to see people marry 5 or 6 times. I honor you D.B. your wisdom AND your witt.

How much of a rebel could I have been if everyone else was doing it as well? In my old age, I do like to think for myself and form my own opinions, but it is no longer important to be a nonconformist. I conform most times and happily so if it makes me feel comfortable. I do not have the energy to swim against the current all the time. There are moments but they are fleeting. Growing up does change a person. It offers much more wisdom in helping us to choose our battles or in deciding to go with the flow.pacifica62noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2136983861650322458.post-79791058159866223552009-09-23T18:59:01.919-04:002009-09-23T18:59:01.919-04:00Conforming to the norm is definitely not one of my...Conforming to the norm is definitely not one of my strengths.Ken Richeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09425810816600512504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2136983861650322458.post-62228930831799244132009-09-23T13:59:28.769-04:002009-09-23T13:59:28.769-04:00I think we're all "nonconformists" t...I think we're all "nonconformists" to som degree.

They were cherished for the lives they lived and their wisdom. Native American Traditionalist tend to still follow this time honored belief.
