I think it was Lao Tzu who suggested being like water. Flow around obstacles and gather in low places.

There are many factors I just cannot change.People are one of them.That is as it should be,IMO. To make up for it,I have the power to make choices.

If I want worms to go fishing,I have learned over time that rock hard dry caliche is difficult digging and yields few,if any,worms..I'm free to dig elsewhere,and if my purpose is to go fishing,I'm wasting my time and effort chipping a rock hard dry sand/clay soil.
Somes spots require way to much effort for little to no reward.

There is peaceful serenity in passing them by.

I can observe a hog standing in a mudhole without getting the urge to wrestle it.I'd just get all muddy,and the hog might enjoy it.

We all get to make choices about where to dig,for worms,or gold.Or just wearing out the shovel.
