Safety is an oxymoron. In a world that is full of duplicitous beings we have to be alert, vigilant, spontaneous and ready. Betrayal wanes and waxes. If people aren’t loyal they would betray another, regardless of the relationship. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2025

We need to purge ourselves of deceit, selfishness, greed, and the compulsion of being an overlord over others. With the short time we have here let’s invest in getting to know ourselves instead of pining about someone we believe is trying to outpace us. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2025
