Seven simple thoughts

Life is a process.  It begins. It ends.  Whatever lies between those two points depends on a lot of things, but I find the quality is better when I keep the following in mind.

Simplicity is the real spice in life. Whittling things down to their essence brings out their true flavor.

Love is something you give away.  It feels so good to love and if it comes back? That feels good too.

Control is an illusion.

Drink coffee. It's easy to gather around a cup of coffee, mix the grounds with a little olive oil and it makes a great facial, and if you google it, you discover it is almost a miracle drink.

Moderation is the great equalizer.

Only you can be the final judge on what is best for you. That's your job.  May you grow into it.
