Putting is like wisdom - partly a natural gift and partly the accumulation of experience.

It’s better to be alone than to spend time with toxic people. It’s better to do nothing than to work on something that doesn’t matter. It’s better to rest than to climb the wrong mountain.
- James Clear

I disagree. Sometimes, working on things that don't matter brings me happiness. And ... does anything, that anyone does on this pale blue dot, really matter in the grand scheme of things? Or does it all matter simply because we want it to and it makes us happy?


Doing things for no reward is sometimes a reward per se.


Cheers, my friends!

Mainstream media tend to just mouth the conventional wisdom, to see everything through the filter of right and left.
