Dropping this here to remind myself:
Ambition means tying your well-being to what other people say or do.
Self-indulgence means tying it to the things that happen to you.
Sanity means tying it to your own actions.
Meditations 6:51
This I must remember — places here after a conversation about “this crazy world today”.
Yes “they” are crazy. Their actions reveal it. They will pay the price (in to and including death, either fast or over a lifetime) for their ideas.
No you can’t do anything about it and you yourself will go crazy or have a giant pity party unless you focus entirely on your own thoughts and your own actions.
