How does the human mind work? We may never fully know, but we continue to search for those answers, because a complex mind is never content with simple answers.🥠

Chesterton’s Fence is a principle that reminds us to look before we leap. To understand before we act. It’s a cautionary reminder to understand why something is the way it is before meddling in change. It's a principle we all should use more often. 🥠

Forgive the action, forget the intent. 🥠
Forgiveness isn’t letting someone off the hook — it’s freeing yourself. 🌱
Take back your peace, one choice at a time.

It with a heavy heart that we say farewell to English zoologist, primatologist and anthropologist, Jane Goodall. She and her work with chimpanzee inspired me to study animals.

Everyone experiences fear at some point in their lives. Luckily, our bodies produce oxytocin, which we produce during social bonding, and helps reduce that fear. Make a friend to fend off fear.🥠

With the bluebird nesting season over, I'm eager to get back to writing & illustrating. Except that I worry about the hearts of humankind. They are fighting like troops of chimpanzee, and that never ends well.

I can get long-winded sometimes. Every now and then, I have to remind myself to go back to the basics of writing. 🥠

We may find ourselves far from home now and then, but when you share our hearts with others under the same roof, we can make any place a home.🥠

Took a break from work to have fun in the woods. Injured my foot, not from hiking a mountain or portaging my canoe, but from the dang steps at the cabin. However, the view was nice while it lasted.

This fortune reminds me of the Rolling Stones single, "You can't always get what you want." When searching for happiness, sometimes it's right in front of you or not what you expected.🥠

Another intelligent soul agrees with education. "The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character - that is the goal of true education." ~Martin Luther King, Jr.🥠

St. Peter's Basilica from different perspectives.
#sunset #churches #romeitaly #architecture

A stone bridge spans a river at dusk, with glowing streetlights and reflections in the water. Trees line both sides, and a domed St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City rises in the background beneath a pink and purple sky.

A bustling street leads to St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City, with crowds of people, historic buildings on either side, and a clear blue sky overhead.
