Berries, your post deeply resonates. I'm painfully aware I can't do just anything I “want.” Goodness, I have a hard time “wanting” anything!
All people are limited in various ways. Remember the old legend about
King Canute ordering the tide not to come in. I wonder if I may have mindlessly tried to “comfort” someone by telling them they “can do anything they set their mind to?” I hope I haven't, because that's not what I really believe.

True. Berries, you and everyone else here is precious-in-themselves far beyond anything we “accomplish.”
