A BEAUTIFUL STRUGGLE

Productivity is a big buzz word, and everyone is trying to find a way to get a leg up on the competition.

Just because someone makes more money in their job, doesn't make them more valuable or more attractive to society.

It’s okay to simply enjoy your life and live it the slow way.  The world needs people like that as well. 

Things will continue to move forward as they always moved, regardless of our accomplishments or not.

There is no need to break free from your natural wiring.  If we don’t feel ecstatic on some days, that is perfectly fine.

Humans are tremendously good and tremendously flawed. And it's easy to demonize the other side as bad apples.

Please embrace the process and the journey, not just the destination at the finish line. 

Our ability to simply function normally in everyday life is already a beautiful gift. 

Utilize whatever advantage you may have and deploy your limited resource wisely to create a better world.

Who has time for existential problems, when you need to take care of your health, bring the kids to school, and pay your electric bill?

I do have agency to sustain my boundaries and do what I feel to be most comfortable.

Do your best to let your thoughts and ideas marinate for a little bit, before rushing to conclusions.

Please, take it easy on yourself and realize that you are doing the best you can.

In the grand scheme of things, what really is the big deal if someone yawns or not? 

Learn to weather the inevitable storms on the horizon and accept that nothing will ever be as clean and pristine as you hope it to be.

Life can be meandering at times. Progress forward for some is not simply a straight line shooting towards the moon.

Let those young ones be full of bliss and ignorant. Let them figure it out for themselves.

If you could just help one person in this world each day every day, then you've already done enough.

At the end of the day, external possessions can only move the needle so far.

We trust because we must. There simply is no other choice. Because everyone’s lives are so dependent on others.
