A ‘transaction’ is an act of debt between parties. The seller owes goods to the buyer (performance debt), and the buyer owes money to the seller (monetary debt). A transaction is considered complete when the debt is settled and the promise to owe each other is called a ‘contract.’ Thus, a good trader or businessman excels at making and repaying debts. When it comes to debt, the type of debt matters. Anyone who misjudges this should not engage in business. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
The weight of a glass of water isn’t heavy, but holding it for a long time can numb your arm. Obsession matters more than the weight of life. If we cling to both hate and stress for too long, our souls become paralyzed. Even small stresses shouldn’t be dismissed, and even mild hatred shouldn’t be ignored in our hearts. The peril of obsession is that my heart becomes numb without me realizing it, and forgiveness has the power to save both the one who hates me and myself. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
