“Every man is worth just so much as the things are worth about which he busies himself” #marcusaurelius Observe the things you work on, you worry on… this time and energy you spend on it either elevates you… or keeps you where you are at. #photography #philosophy #mindfulness

Years from now, you will forget what you worried about today, and likely also, forget the times you sought peace... But which you practiced more, becomes the default in what you do each time your environment tries to become louder than the reality around you. Stack sats, sure, but also stack quiet moments. Remove anything not helping you build towards more peace. Your mind is a sacred temple, don't let it come cheap to just anything enter it. #photography #philosophy #mindfulness #bitcoin

CP Grey promoting constantly #bitcoin in this video... How did I miss it 9 years ago?? The video humbles you in realizing the politics are not as simple as you think.

Of all the challenges you meet today and throughout your life, no matter how successful or burnt down to the ground it devastated you... "to bear it nobly is good fortuna". #photography #philosophy #mindfulness #marcusaurelius

Talk about paying extra to maintain inflation, sheeesh! 😵‍💫 #money

Remember, we are just passing through... #photography #mindfulness

"If the fool would persist in his folly, he would become wise" (William Blake) How do I know I am the wise? Or the fool? Or round and round I go being both? Living without memory, never gets boring. Living without predicting never gets anxiety (paraphrasing Alan Watts). So then the fool is also the wise? Fool or wise, it does not change who we are... just how we move. #photography #philosophy #mindfulness #alanwatts

The praise that comes from others are a signal of how aligned you are with their values. If you do not admire their values, then give no value to their praise, let them fall to your feet, for if you do, you will find yourself giving competition of their values with yours. This is why we must seek to understand what other people value to understand what they praise. #photography #philosophy #mindfulness

#Bitcoin winter coming up? It doesn't matter. Just plan for it. For years our ancestors learned to expect winter and prepare for it. They became experts and even found ways to enjoy it. You will too. You know what they didn't do? Sell their hardest asset, like their land, because of it. And they couldn't grow anything in the winter... but you can. You have it easier. Stay humble and stack sats. Spring follows the winter. #photography #mindfulness #finances

#Nostr is like water... It seeks the low level which human beings abhor. It endures free speech so that those without a voice, can be heard. Nostr does not go along with the pattern, which corresponds to the confusion, rather it is like #bitcoin which mimicks nature. It's like an organism, with no controlling center, ever changing. #philosophy #dao #alanwatts #marcusaurelius

What does this tell you about our laws and morality? #philosophy #fineprint
