Just my thoughts #0526

If you can’t throw away what you have, you don’t own it properly. If you cannot leave the place you are staying, you are not entirely settled. Possession and non-possession share the same root, and wandering and settlement share the same root. There is no eternal state; we only enjoy a temporary state. It is often misunderstood that a state of possession for a moment is possession, and that a momentary absence is mistaken for wandering. The world changes, and you change too. Obsession and stubbornness will only hinder your change. If you know how to give up and leave at any time, the value of what you currently have and the state you are in will change significantly. Stability comes from sharing instability. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0297

The flesh of salmon is naturally white. Its characteristic orange hue results from the salmon’s diet, which is rich in shrimp, imparting the shrimp’s color to its flesh. This orange pigment, known as ‘carotenoids,’ is also found in carrots. Fish with red flesh possess high levels of hemoglobin in their blood and myoglobin in their muscles, enabling them to utilize oxygen efficiently, particularly those that require strong muscle activity. Although salmon are typically less active, they become more engaged during the spawning season when they travel back to their rivers. It’s fascinating to think that salmon and carrots are linked through this pigment despite having no apparent connection. The world has unimaginable connections. Who can predict what tomorrow will bring? Thus, let’s strive to be good people. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
