I Believe… [Don't Underestimate the Machine]

...that external achievements are made through conscious will but internal success is made through letting go. The harder you pursue happiness, closure, and peace the more elusive it becomes.

...that the reason TrumpCo went ahead and treated immigrants at the border like animals in cages was to distract us while they tried to roll back Medicaid. Underestimating these assholes is exactly how they got in there in the first place.

...that, with the divides in our country becoming more and more extreme, I’m thinking that the 2nd Amendment isn’t all bad. Anyone know of a Leftie Gun Safety course in Chicago?

...that personal reinvention is harder the older you get yet more necessary to do as you grow closer to the end of things.

...that the more we demand respect from the world, the less the world will respect us. The more we demonstrate respect to others, the more they will come to respect us.
