At what point in my struggle with nature will nature finally give up?

Look how often the unexpected happens - yet we still never expect it.

I want to appreciate you now, and avoid the rush.

Just because I accept you as you are does not mean that I have given up all hope of your improvement.

If you can't go around it, over it, or through it, you had better negotiate with it.

I try to take it one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once.

I too have known joy and sadness, and, on the whole, I prefer joy.
