Avoidance

016

.

“The aim

of the wise

is not to

secure pleasure,

but to avoid

pain.”

.

~ Aristotle

.

Sticking one’s foot into one’s mouth is a pain.

Banging one’s head against the wall is a pain.

I’ll show you, I’ll hurt myself is a pain.

Selfish, self-centered, arrogant, grandiose

and egotistical is a pain.

The pleasure does not have to be sought,

it will arrive to fill the void

after the pain has gone away.

Today, be wise, be humble,

avoid the heartaches and be happy.

Happiness is avoiding the pain.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.

The More Loving One

014

“If equal affection

cannot be

Let the more loving

one be me”

.

~ W. H. Auden

.

.

.

You cannot measure the love of another soul.

Another person cannot measure your love.

Only you can measure what your love is.

Affection is another word for kindness and

when you put up your measuring stick,

always remember that only you can measure

your kindness and when it reaches 110 per cent

you will be the person your Higher Power wants you to be.

Kindness is being the more loving one.

Kindness is the beginning of a life filled with love.
