Just my thoughts #0623

Meeting someone intentionally requires planning a specific time and place, and because it is a three-dimensional event, it can be seen as a cosmic occurrence. We can’t meet simply by setting a time, nor can we meet just by choosing a place. So, how much more astonishing is it to meet someone by chance without an appointment? Meeting and breaking up with someone are by no means easy. We create cosmic events every day, fulfilling vast mathematical probabilities and physical conditions. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0036

The poorer persons are, the more likely they are to consider the system they are in, not their abilities or character. The poor are more likely to choose to live in ways that make them poorer. It's not because they're stupid, it's because the system they're in leads them to make those choices. Rutker Bregman, a Dutch historian and author, says that everyone is forced to make such decisions when they are placed in this environment. The way out of this system is to change your worldview. Poverty is a state of being, not an outcome. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
