Building Roots

Plants can only strive if they are planted in places that support their growth. As humans we find ourselves in the same quandary. We have to build roots in places that can support us spiritually, emotionally and financially. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2021

Buying expensive stuff won’t quench our appetite for prominence. The more we accumulate, the more we are dissatisfied. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2021

Illusion

Like magic money is illusory. If we were to kill all the trees, food crops, poison the water, and make the land barren our species would be wiped out. Money is not a commodity, it’s only a status symbol that won’t serve us if a global crisis emerges. We have to put everything in perspective. […]

Objectivity Matters

We have to think on what people tell us about ourselves. In order to be objective we have to know ourselves. We have to ask ourselves whether what people say to us is malicious, objective, or derisive. Ultimately it is only what we say and think of ourselves that matters. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2021
