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”
Corn is a mysterious plant. It is the most viable crop on Earth, but it can only survive with human touch. Corn kernels look like plants born from the premise of human care, as the thick shells wrapping around the corn kernels can rot them if human hands do not peel the shells off. The more corn ripens, the more sugar converts to starch. Therefore, it’s delicious if you harvest it quickly and eat it immediately. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
