Be bored more often.
Go for long walks. Meditate. Journal your thoughts. Read new books. Spend time alone without devices. You would get to understand yourself a lot much better. Your brain gets the best ideas when it is left to wander.
In those quiet moments, you'll uncover clarity and inspiration that can't be found in constant stimulation.
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.
Best mental reset I’ve learned:
If your mind is loud — Write.
If your mind is empty — Read.
If your mind is racing — Walk.
If your mind is tired — Sleep.
If your mind is sharp — Build.
Most problems are just mismatched energy. Get the inputs right, the rest follows.

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

Sometimes I fantasize about disappearing.
Not dying.
Just logging off.
Getting a job no one cares about.
Growing tomatoes.
Writing poems in the margins of a notebook no one reads.
Not as a failure.
But as a kind of freedom.
i love it when a woman slowly steps out of survival mode and starts to fall in love with life again. when her zest for life comes back and when she starts to notice all the magic and blessings around her, it’s the most beautiful thing to witness.

…somewhere along the way, we’ve started dressing up the flesh and calling it favor.
We confuse looking blessed with being transformed.
One cannot help but notice that every claimed abuse our "woke-scolders" nag us about, from climate change to COVID to civil rights to gendernoia, has two common characteristics:
1. Their “solutions” consistently impose ever more top-down control upon the rest of us.
2. Advancing their specific claimed "abuse" is consistently subordinated to expanding this top-down control.
It seems that our woke-scolders are Progressives first, (insert claimed abuse here) second.
Well said. And it seems the Progressive woke-scolders in my neighborhood have inserted themselves into the HOA, where $2 million has gone missing from budget cookie jar. They hand out exorbitant fines and harass homeowners, while their homes get remodeled using HOA contractors. They create more top-down control laws which are randomly enforced to line their pockets and make life miserable for all living things.
Corruption and greed are genetic flaws that humanity has failed to evolve past. Corruption and greed exist in all facets of human existence where the first and foremost purpose of most peoples' existence is to enrich themselves and to get gain. From the federal leviathan to the small town to the local church. There will always be someone in the organization who believes they are entitled to more and will steal what they believe is theirs. Until humanity evolves past this we will never progress to be more than what we currently are.
Sadly, I agree that greed and corruption are part of the human condition. And those that possess this trait in greater abundance tend to drift into positions of power and influence. It takes strong, ethical leaders, those who can absorb the slings and arrows against them, to rise up and rally the masses to counter this phenomena. I don't think we'll ever move past this dynamic.
