    A lot of being adult is finding the justification and necesity of certain evils.

    They are not welcomed, but we find peace in embracing, acclamating them.

    I first learned this with pets. My brother in law, in his youth, would stone puppies to death. A cruel act but they would endanger the food rations. I am thankful I did not have to live that life.

    I am thankful more humane and proactive measures exist now.

      There are less cruel ways of killing a puppy than stoning it to death. Also, what’s the difference between welcoming and acclamating?
