    The Chance and Choice to Love

    Love shows itself with force in times of unimaginable loss.

    For those with deafening silence where once their loved ones spoke. For those with pain, with fear, bewilderment and grief.

    Life is all I know. Each breath, each moment, a chance and choice to love.

    The Value of Money

    Money, the most ubiquitous means of human exchange, is used to gain, and eases practical need, however in itself has no value, and yet money is the single greatest cause of human unhappiness.

    Before children are taught about money, they learn far more of what it is to give and take.

    Money cannot buy those things I treasure. It has no force in love, compassion, kindness, friendship, hope, or wisdom. Money is an idea I am far better off without.

    Fear and Overthinking

    Overthinking: trying to understand too much, analysing to excess, thinking beyond its usefulness.

    My resistance to thinking carefully about something, to my taking time and viewing things from many points of view, is that my knowing becomes less certain. A fast and confident response allays my insecurities and avoids the hesitancy and dangers of doubt. It is far easier to follow than to lead.

    The charge of overthinking only occurs because of my propensity for quick, easy answers.

There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so.

William Shakespeare
