Thank you - you as well, and so many here.

If a person ain’t too bright, the best thing is to realize it.

I know I’ve got tremendous limitations and realizing that I have them is essential. “Overconfidence in one’s own intelligence” is not a good thing - I read that in a book the other day, described as a cause of great misfortune for the soul.

One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned in life is that there are different types of intellegence, and different learning styles. The trick is to realistically assess oneself, to improve where one can, and be happy with accomplishments achieved with the talents, abilities and help that God gives. Easy enough, huh? :-)
