Earth Day
If we revere Mother Earth we will show reverence to all who dwell on this earth including sentient beings. The harm we do to Mother Earth reverberates back at us. The time for introspection is now. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2026
How I unwind after a demanding day
How do you unwind after a demanding day? Listening to music is how I unwind. It is soothing and restorative. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2026
Jealousy
Jealousy abides in the hearts and minds of those who are supercilious. They can’t help themselves. Their sight is blinded by their obsession that they have to compete by any means possible. Pity the man or woman who can’t dream about their own path but begrudgingly compete to keep up with their imaginary competitors. Exceptionalism […]
The first thing that comes to my mind
Jot down the first thing that comes to your mind. Peace is the first thing that comes to my mind. Destitution is not a state of mind, it is a product of institutions. We were born with gifts to be distributed to the world for the good of all. Cherry picking who have worth and […]

We force allegiance through our reward and punishment methods. Manipulation is like the tides, they rise and they fall. We humans are a microcosm of this universe, we […]
Impermanence
Every hurdle we face is temporary. Remembering that nothing lasts helps us in overcoming our anxieties in periods of distress. We can transcend all obstacles. This life we live is continuously evolving so it’s imperative that we change our mindset. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2026
Authentic

Tarrying
There is never a convenient time to tarry. We are here for a short sojourn and it is expedient for us to do the work that is required of us. We have to let go of the shackles of self aggrandizement. We are stewards and not masters. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2026
Solo
We have to create space to be alone with ourselves. Having friends and relatives is superb but the only confidant we can trust is ourselves. Trusting in ourselves negates disappointments. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2026
Where do I see myself in 10 years
Where do you see yourself in 10 years? I am committed to being in pursuit of my evolution in every way. In ten years I see myself as being more enlightened, and focused on helping to transform earth back to a place of perpetual peace and parity. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2026
