Thoughts for the week -- 4/26/2019

1. Intellectual contemplation is the most beautiful and whole of all virtues one can strive for. To end a day full of encounters with the angry, jealous, sneaky, selfish and hurtful, and to quickly and rationally contemplate on their motives, and the fractured essence of their being, is one of the most beautiful and frequent thoughts one can have. Conversely, to appreciate someone of true beauty and to acknowledge how rare and fleeting these types are, is pure joy. Because nothing in this world compares with seeing the true greatness of the unselfish, kind hearted, honorable, and respectable among us in action, as they come and go in this fast and chaotic world. If there is only a single pleasure that one can have in this world, let it be that.
