"all validation, all the time" sounds like it would make a good cable tv channel :mrgreen:

I politely disagree! Sounds like it'd be boring, nice but boring!

sometimes nice but boring is just what doctor feelgood ordered

there are lots of days when I need more validation :bounce:

Yeah...there's lots of days when I just feel like looking at the ocean waves. That's validity, in my opinion.

If I'm in a certain mood, the bark of a tree could seem like a Rorschach inkblot.

I don't know why: but I feel relaxed when I look at the patterns of bathroom tiles.

It helps to make the bathroom experience harmonious.

Yep....we're veering off the topic---but that's valid! LOL
