While it is important to be mindful of how we spend our time as to not let it be piddled away, it is equally important to avoid the trap of over-planning.

Attempting to cling too tightly to any one chapter of our lives poses a futile challenge toward the flow of time.

We serve to regurgitate the same actions, feelings, and routines as a futile means of hedging off mistakes. Pursue nuance, and make mistakes.

It must not be considered a failure to openly acknowledge a life we are not proud of.

We grow immensely through examination of our emotions and provide ourselves with opportunities for nuanced experiences.

It can be overwhelming to think how many items or services we use on a daily basis that have been made possible by countless contributions of people worldwide.

We get caught in the rat-race of trying to out-shine our neighbors, and we begin to tie our self-worth to acquisition of endless quantities of material possessions.

It is far too easy to fall into a cycle of complacency.

Focusing solely on materialistic aspects of life is misguided, and bound to leave us feeling a sense of emptiness.
