Happiness

Each story has an inevitable ending. The battle between our better nature and our worst impulses will eventually conclude. In writing my own version, the image that comes to mind is this: the tree branches reach up higher than ever, and their foliage has almost covered up the sun. The vines run up and down the sturdy stone wall. Hidden within these walls, an unbothered soul who has made peace and found happiness.

Travel Light

The weight of the world is heavy and we do not need to carry its weight around. But we will, unless we bring with us only what is essential. 

We can only take a finite number of steps, and the road will end sooner than we can ever expect. It is wise for us to walk light, but it is hubris to be untethered.

Yes, the weight of the world is heavy and we do not need to carry its weight around. But we will, unless we let go of what is unnecessary.
