enclosed entity of the ego.
Now the mind is speaking.

I am like a newborn.
I have what I have today;
I have my fingers, my toes,
some people in my life,

perhaps a cherished memory,
but only a dream - nothing more.
I will make all decisions and actions based solely
on what I have today as a starting point."

Most of us believe that we have
been betrayed by someone outside of us -
in other words someone has done something to hurt us,
been dishonest or broken a promise made:
some trust in some concept was broken.
Indeed someone may have taken an action
that took only their needs into consideration,
they may have not followed through on a promise made,
and they may have not told you the truth.
But their actions have nothing to do with you
and have everything to do with them.
That's why no one can do anything TO you.
They can take actions that involve you that you may not like -
according to your point of view.
But you are not a victim, no way, no how.
- Sheri Rosenthal

Let children walk with Nature,
let them see the beautiful blendings

their joyous inseparable unity,
as taught in woods and meadows,

of our blessed star,
and they will learn that death
is stingless indeed,
and as beautiful as life.
- John Muir

My choice resides in my perspective.
While I certainly do not control climate
and markets and roadways and others,
I do control myself and my response
to all those circumstances. I do indeed.
