sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

When You're Bored, You're Being Shaped.

Boredom isn’t the absence of stimulation. It’s a test. Of what you reach for. Of what you default to.

Do you grab your phone? Or a pen? Do you scroll? Or sit with your thoughts? Do you numb? Or build?

Because what you do when you're bored becomes who you are when you're not.

Boredom is a doorway. To creativity. To clarity. To the things you keep avoiding.

Stop escaping it.

Ok now we switch investments from one MIC to the other MIC. Never ending war. Merry Christ Mass Murder just in time for the slow Pharma uptake. At 74 how do I shake this depression, this reality? This is so mother effing effed up.

Maybe millions of people should just start walking towards the “holy” land, praying, singing, this call is to all mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers....”DO NOT SHOOT ANYONE, ANYMORE, EVER”.
