I'm sure he said it much better than I just conveyed, but it's such a terrific parable because I do think we become inured, habituated to the water we swim in, literally. matched

Like you don't see the things that you see every day. matched

You don't hear the things that you hear every day. matched

Some of that's good, by the way. matched

My husband and I, when we were raising our two daughters. matched

And just starting out in one of those like starter first homes, it was literally our first home. matched

And all we could afford was a little twin. matched

So we had half of a house and it was across from train tracks in the suburbs of Philadelphia. matched

Lovely neighborhood. matched

But in fact, you could hear a train go by every 25 minutes. matched

And when we first moved in, we thought, well, this is going to drive us crazy. matched

And eventually it was like water. matched

We were like, what? matched

What train? matched

We just stopped hearing the train. matched

So that can be a good thing that we get used to things. matched

Sometimes you should be swimming in a different place with different companions. matched
