You Figure It Out

It is often surprisingly easy to dis empower.........someone without meaning to. When for example, we stop a loved one from learning through their own experience. Or when we demonstrate our superior skills in some area of activity in which someone else is only starting out. The trouble is, when we know we are right, it is very hard to sit quietly and watch someone else get it wrong. Hard it may be, but sometimes, to make a point, it is essential. What matters is not so much what you already know as what someone else now sorely needs to find out for themselves

Our Lack Of

Is there a tax on hope? Why shouldn't there be? Governments seem keen enough to levy a charge on everything else the gives us pleasure. And even if governments don't impose it, there's certainly a tax on pessimism. Every time we take out an insurance policy, we effectively pay for our own lack of faith in the future. This allows us to feel glad when things go wrong, "Hooray!" we say, "I'm covered for this." Perhaps if we weren't all so well protected we would work harder to ensure that more things went right.

im trying to maintain a clear sense of perspective

whats as true today as it was yesturday and as it will be tomorrow and onwards, to the end of time? the further into the past or the future we look, the sense we are able to make of the present. everything......changes. everything is relative. thats why, when we want to feel comfortable we relate to the immediate past and the very near future. this, though gives....us ....a ....warped, misleading.....perspective.

anger

"being angry is using other's mistake to punish yourself." the biggest tragedy in this world is being angry ; anger is easiest to harm your body, your enemy will most likely see your appearance of anger, so dont show you decling to others

come again

Oh boy you better be joking or do you think I'm mad
That I would ever contemplate, ever coming back
To hear it all again and watch your wandering whims
Your eyes never convinced me that you could be my man
So remember, don't be getting close over here
I'll help you with your coat
I see the glimmer, I see the hope, I see your pride
Let me introduce you to mine
