life thoughts, long story short pt 2

i once read a book
about Bruce Lee
and his thoughts, Striking Thoughts

i have had thoughts as well
although not often striking

reflections from a lifetime
often random, amusing or serious

Reality isn’t
what you think
(it really isn’t)

the secret to a good death?
live a good life

Cold day?
Hot soup

most of the difficulties often faced
come about because we don’t say No nearly enough.

time travel is already here
living in the past
obsessing about the future.

stop judging yourself
and everyone else

in life there are no ordinary moments

stop competing, stop comparing
believe it, you really are unique

no one likes to be corrected
i never did

do you think when others say i need to be more flexible
it’s so they don’t have to be?

what would my world be like
if i took an hour a day
and put myself in the life of an “enemy”
and realized they really aren’t consumed
with making my life miserable.

just saying and
don’t ascribe intent

ciao
