a house into a home, a stranger into a friend.
Gratitude makes sense of our past,
brings peace for today,
and creates a vision for tomorrow.

perhaps a friend or spouse, perhaps a stranger,

they want to find someone to be "responsible" for what happened.

Laws can be evaded and punishment escaped,
but an openly transgressed custom brings sure punishment.

Certainly, then, there can be but one wise thing
for a visiting stranger to do -
find out what the country's customs are,
and refrain from offending against them.
- Mark Twain

treats a strange protein; it rejects it.

the strongest of us struggle in vain.
