UBU Monday. Some Murphed/Modified Murph at Cooties. Some ran. Some rucked.

Moleskine:

"Why Are You Rushing So Much?"

Most of us accept the standard ideas we were taught, but a major crisis can quickly change our perspective.
Perhaps someone close to us dies, and we are faced with how temporary life is. Or we have a health crisis, or an addiction crisis.
The standard ideas may come crashing down. We look closely at the rush of our lives and ask deeper questions:

"We may be industrious, but are we hurrying to a worthwhile goal? Or are we losing out in our great rush?"

These doubts can teach us personal things that broader society rarely can. Wisdom is born from pain and the willingness to learn from it.

Thought for the Day: "Today, I will allow some time to stand still and reflect."

COT: PAX prayed in quiet contemplation for @Sparrow and his acquaintances in the Middle East, as well as personal struggles we, our loved ones, or neighbors may be dealing with in life. Ended with the Serenity Prayer.
