A BEST FRIEND

FRIENDLY ADVICEThe older my body gets (almost 70) I become more aware of the ancient adage: “Life is short”.  Indeed, it seems so.  What is a single lifetime in the order of the cosmos?  Less than a blink of an eye .  Through eternity there is only one companion, as far as I know.  Yourself.  If we find being alone difficult, without friends, we may have a very long time to endure existence without others to keep us distracted from ourselves in the “great beyond”, whatever that may be.  So, being our own best friend makes good sense.

IDOLATRY

You worship another along with your brothers, and carve them as statues: rather than you.

Denying your Self: gather dust on a shelf.  You shatter and crumble like stone in a jungle.

Choose a man to be cause over you:  You become them, then you lose You.
