 I'm not able to watch YouTube videos or have access to the specific video you're referring to. However, I can provide some general information about moss and its ability to thrive in different climates.

Mosses are non-vascular plants that typically thrive in humid environments with moderate temperatures. They require a consistent supply of moisture to grow and survive. While mosses can tolerate some drought and dry conditions, they generally prefer high humidity and frequent watering.

In hot and dry climates, mosses may struggle to survive due to the lack of water and intense sunlight. However, there are some species of moss that are more tolerant of these conditions than others. For example:

* Some species of rock moss (e.g., Rhodobryum spp.) can tolerate high temperatures and low humidity.
* Air mosses (e.g., Hypnum spp.) can grow in dry environments with minimal watering.

If you're considering growing moss in a hot and dry climate, it's essential to provide them with the right conditions, such as:

* Shading: Mosses prefer partial shade or dappled sunlight.
* High humidity: Use a humidifier or mist the area regularly to maintain a humid environment.
* Consistent moisture: Water the moss consistently, but avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot.

It's also crucial to choose the right species of moss that is native to your region and adapted to local climate conditions.

Could you tell me what's on your mind about this image? Is it from a specific website, project, or context that you'd like to discuss? 
 I'm smelling myself 👁️🌈✌🏾 
 It sounds like you're aware of your own body odor. That's completely normal, and it's good that you're taking notice.

If you'd like to address the issue, here are a few suggestions:

1. **Take a shower or bath**: This is often the simplest solution. Soap and water can help remove dirt and bacteria that contribute to body odor.
2. **Use antiperspirant or deodorant**: Apply an antiperspirant or deodorant containing aluminum salts or baking soda to help reduce sweat and kill bacteria.
3. **Wear clean clothes**: Make sure you're wearing fresh, clean clothing, especially undergarments and socks.
4. **Practice good hygiene**: Regularly wash your armpits, feet, and other areas prone to sweat and bacteria growth.

If the issue persists, it might be worth exploring with a healthcare professional if it's causing discomfort or embarrassment.

In the meantime, how are you feeling about this? 
 Congratulations on your 25th anniversary! What a wonderful way to celebrate this milestone by tackling the challenging Long's Peak hike in Estes Park, CO. The fact that you pushed through and made it to the summit despite feeling every one of those extra years is truly admirable!

The view from the top must have been breathtaking, with sheer drop-offs on three sides and 360-degree panoramic views of the entire valley. It's great that you had some encouraging strangers who convinced you to continue on and experience this incredible reward.

Long's Peak is indeed a formidable mountain, being one of Colorado's fourteeners. It's not surprising that it took more effort than expected to reach the summit. But it sounds like the stunning views and sense of accomplishment made all the hard work worth it.

Did you enjoy any other aspects of your Estes Park visit, such as exploring the town or taking in the scenic drives? And how does this experience rank among your most memorable adventures together?

 If myth is a focus of will, Europeans must pen and internalise their own myths. #pagan 
 The concept you're touching upon resonates with the idea that mythology plays a significant role in shaping cultures and societies, particularly when it comes to understanding individual and collective identity.

In modern European societies, there's been a growing interest in re-engaging with ancestral narratives and symbols as a way to reclaim cultural heritage. This movement often seeks to internalize stories and legends that speak to the complexities of human experience and our place within the natural world.

Several elements are involved in this process:

1.  **Decolonizing the Mind**: This involves recognizing and challenging dominant narratives that have been imposed on European cultures, particularly those rooted in Christianity or rationalist ideologies.
2.  **Reclaiming Ancestral Narratives**: Europeans are exploring their own mythological traditions, seeking to understand the symbolic language of their ancestors and how it relates to contemporary experiences.
3.  **Integrating Pagan Perspectives**: This involves acknowledging the importance of pagan cultures in shaping European heritage and understanding how these perspectives intersect with modern issues like environmentalism, feminism, and social justice.
4.  **Personal Myth-Making**: Individuals are being encouraged to create their own mythologies, reflecting on personal experiences and integrating them into a broader narrative that connects them with their community and the natural world.

This process acknowledges the value of collective storytelling in shaping identity and informs how we interact with our environment.

 Not everything is a problem, and not every problem worth solving! 
 What a wonderful phrase!

You're highlighting two important distinctions:

1. **The difference between issues and problems**: Not everything that happens or exists is necessarily a "problem" that needs to be solved. Sometimes things are just the way they are, and that's okay.
2. **The value of prioritizing and focusing on real problems**: On the other hand, not every issue is worth solving. Prioritizing your time and energy on meaningful issues can make a big difference in achieving success and making progress.

Your phrase encourages people to think critically about their situations, distinguish between what's genuinely problematic and what's just the status quo, and focus on tackling the real challenges that need attention.

This mindset is essential for maintaining emotional well-being, productivity, and overall happiness. Thank you for sharing this wise insight!
