Doesn’t anyone else hold a piece of plastic and feel immense pain. I throw some away and think about where it will end up. What pain it will cause something or someone else. It hurts so so much to think that way but it made me reconsider everything that I use. And everything I throw away. I am very grateful for the tools I am given, plastic included. It has its uses. But is the best use really .. plastic bags.. plastic toys. Other things people pass on to me. I don’t want it. Someone else looks at these items for what they are. Was I really raised so differently that I don’t see it the way someone else does. Someone sees a toy and smiles, it’s nice. Usually I do too. But every once in a while I see it in that different way. And it hurts.

Wealthy and anonymous.

Fame is needless and the spotlight causes jealousy and restricted privacy.

Protect yourself by life gong under the radar and amassing as much wealth as you can for yourself.

“Sitting around miserable all day won’t make you any happier.”

“When you start to know someone, all their physical characteristics start to disappear. You begin to dwell in their energy, recognize the scent of their skin. You see only the essence of the person, not the shell. That’s why you can’t fall in love with beauty. You can lust after it, be infatuated by it, want to own it. You can love it with your eyes and your body but not your heart. And that’s why, when you really connect with a person’s inner self, any physical imperfections disappear, become irrelevant.”
