seems almost comical to me, that one could take oneself so flippantly, but i was doing things that weren’t good for me and did not lead to longevity

so it would make sense that life and how it is lived has consequences and if you want them to be good then you best run them through the mill and decide what is good and what is just a thrill

excitement adds flavor to life but a diet of constant stimulation is depleting and has lasting repercussions.

i like steak but i can’t eat it everyday, but i can drink as much water as i like, the point being if i am going to indulge, make it something that is good for me, reading, writing, prayer, assistance to others etc……and even these need to be moderated.

i am responsible for all facets of my life, not just the easy ones, all of them. the quality and content of my life are up to me.

i stopped taking myself and life for granted……it is a gift…….a tree that needs to be pruned and watered.

a meaningful life, must be first treasured and respected by me
