Sometimes in life we need to sit with things for a minute, maybe on the fringe of things, not only to savor the wealth of the moment, but take a moment to figure out how to respectfully engage it.

If we don’t use our minds, we can be certain that someone else will.

Start thinking for yourself, because if you don’t someone else will.

For the thinking person it’s not how many words you use, but how few you use, up to and including using none.

It’s not that I’ve been invited to the hole I’m standing in. It’s that I accepted the invitation.

So, there’s this hornet’s nest. And there’s this long stick. And then there’s me. How I walk away from all of this will depend on whether I realize that some things go together and some things don’t no matter how hard you try.

Ignorance is not bliss. Rather, ignorance is blistering.

Patience compels me to adjust my stride to the cadence of life, not the pace of my greed.

Sometimes it’s less about making the right decision and more about not making the wrong one.
