Dr. Seuss :)

He is perhaps one of the best writers and philosophical thinkers of our time.

My favorite Dr. Seuss line of all time.

"Today you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is youer than you."

Love who you are even when you find yourself feeling disappointed, defeated , or angry; There truly is no one who can be you. I struggle with this idea all the time, and it is wasted energy to be disappointed with yourself. Living is not spent reflecting on the past, but existing in the present and looking forward.

Little pond

Unfortunately, we inevitably will come across people who have an ego problem. Luckily, I've come to understand that they are just big fish in a little pond. What is most important about this statement is they really fail to comprehend the complexity of the world outside of their bubble. We are all just the size of an electron(probably smaller) in the scheme of the Universe we live.Yes even you, Mister Arrogance.

Ask yourself this.
Will you have made a positive difference in the world before your life ended?

Mr. Fish, respect the fish in your pond because you don't get to pick a new pond in this lifetime.
