Thought Provoking Insights

It's not how many people like you that makes you what your are. It's how you act on that info, that makes you what you are.
That works also with how much money you have, and how good you are at sports, and how good looking you are.


You never know what the tide will bring in tomorrow. So never give up on life and never stop just continuing to try.(This was from the movie "castaway")

Do the right thing even if it hurts you in the process. But don't do stupid things. In other words don't be in it just for yourself. Which means create a safe and secure environment for those you want to keep around you.

It's great living off of the table scraps of society. Going to the thrift store or garage sales, and give aways on the side of the road. You can always repurpose other peoples trash into your own treasure if you know what you're looking for: For instance, use the seeds from fruit bought at the store to grow your own, after you've eaten the fruit.
Or use Mylar from potato chip bags to make a parabolic mirror for starting a BBQ in the back yard.

Baby steps:
Only focus on what you have control over now, and don't worry about what's out of your control, what happens happens, at least you tried. And the journey of 1000 miles begins with "1 first step".

Think of everybody that you meet or talk to as though you're both still in high school. Because all humans are immature at heart. What sets grown ups apart from kids is just the degree of seriousness in which they look at life. So stop taking yourself so seriously, and you won't be so upset at other people being immature.
