I learned more about Pokemon type advantages...even though I've been playing the games for nearly ten years now.

...that I dipped my toe in the water, too soon, and, perhaps, with more time, I will be able to function, properly, in other areas. No regrets in trying, however...

The opposite of chaos isn't order; its stasis.

I learned that there are many people that don't care... but there are many that do. Like myself, I care. Surely I'm not the only one.

And stasis can be chaos.

I've learned that the comeuppance that most of the most evil people get, is in a higher court beyond human earthly purview.

Yes.

I've learned that we will all get what we deserve, which is peace forever eventually, after we have paid for our sins. Sins are temporary, because pain is temorary. The good people we victimize will eventually get the good they deserve, so the bad will get the good they deserve too, because the pain they caused therefore didn't last forever.

I learned that loneliness sometimes comes back, and that I often want attention too much for my own good.
