Each day, for each thing & minute you dwell on what you hate or fear, spend as many minutes on as many things or more that you love. You must fuel yourself with the beauty in this world, to remember why you care & want to make it better.

I was reading about the Pope’s funeral & saw this photo. I was struck by the sculpture in the back. It’s titled Angels Unawares. It’s based on the verse “Don’t neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.” It’s about caring for refugees & migrants. 🥺

I’d like you to imagine yourself for 25 hours not eating, not going to the bathroom, not sitting down, and now talking the entire time without a break. Just on endurance this is dedication.

Market reporting almost always focuses on gains and drops for the day or sometimes week, proclaiming the sky is falling. But if you back out to the year (or even 5) you get the real picture. It’s overall flat since the election but way up from a year ago. 🤷🏼♂️🤪 Better perspective please.
