very slow learning curve in my life. It's taken me a long time to learn somethings, and with others it's still not sunk in. :shrug:

I may take forever to learn some things and may never learn others yet there there are some things that I learn more quickly.

10. The Universe is intrinsically uncertain.
Nothing is guaranteed to come out the same way twice. Therefore, doing the same thing over and over will indeed ultimately produce a different outcome. It might take trillions of years, but it will happen. You just have to be patient.

14. That's a pretty good definition of insanity.
And it really does describe some people so well.
