It Seems To Me That...

My philosophical take on life after some great exchanges with a friend - thank you friend.


It Seems To Me That


 


You can never laugh too much


You can never love too often


You can never be too kind


You can make peace eventually


Pain and hurt are part of life


I do not have to love my enemy to be a good person


I can hold people accountable for their actions


There will always be one more thing to do in a day


Life is what each of us makes it


Each person has their own reality


I don’t have to get it right every single time


We all have responsibility to keep this planet healthy


Those who are able need to give a hand up


True giving comes without the expectation of reciprocity


We need to protect and nurture all children


We must educate each other


Learning is a lifelong process


Violence never solved a damn thing


Beauty begins within and emanates outward to others


We must strike a balance between humanity and nature


Evolution is not a passive ride we take, we have a part to play


Hope creates infinite solutions to problems


It’s easier to see the value if we don’t buy the hype


Music really is the nectar by which we identify ourselves


Over-consumption is a mindset we can let go of and live happily without


Children need boundaries and guidance, not excuses and parents who parent by guilt


Elderly people are a long-forgotten and valuable part of any society


We must never forget the importance of human touch


We can become too politically correct


Patience is a characteristic I’d like to see a lot more of


We can live simply so that everyone has a chance in life


I can live without power, food and water, but not love


The freedom I enjoy came at someone’s expense and I ought to never forget that


My children have done a fabulous job raising me


We ought to strive harder to find the commonalities rather than the differences
Happiness is within my grasp as long as I reach out for it

Rose, once again you have shined and raised the bar of excellence with this timeless creation, my friend! Thank you for sharing these wonderful thoughts. I agree with Tommy, and also would like to add, it would make a great poster to be displayed everywhere. With your permission, I’d love to try doing it here in my local area? As is, of course, minus the picture, unless I had the artist’s permission too. Take good care and be well.

Rose,
I had to sleep on this write as you touched on many great points and lots of wisdom. First you and your friend should be saluted for this conversation and it is shame we all don't have more of these between each other. All of these are great but for me that meaning of giving and not wanting back in return is something that means tons to me in my life as that is what I have tried to do. Again this is one write I hope all on here will stop and read and try to follow also. Hey this also would be great to show up in sunday morning paper in the letters to the editor I think.
Tips my hat to you again my friend,
