Thought for the Day by Aristotle

All men by nature desire knowledge
by Aristotle

The Enemy of Trust

The single quality that is common across every single living creature on this planet; is fear.

It’s funny then, that as common as fear is, we so easily underestimate its power.

Fear of growing close to someone, the subsequent fear of loss. 

Fear of failure.

And as more people depend on you, those fears can take on greater power.

But fear itself isn’t worthy of concern, it is who we become while in its clutches.

Will you be proud of that person?

Will you forgive them?

Will you understand why they felt the need to do the things they did?

Will you even recognize them?

Or will the person staring back at you be the very thing you should have feared from the start?  

I suppose we all find out, sooner or later.

RWBY S7-E13

Thought for the Day by Epicurus

It is not possible for a man to banish all fear of the essential questions of life unless he understands the nature of the universe and unless he banishes all consideration that the fables told about the universe could be true. Therefore a man cannot enjoy full happiness, untroubled by turmoil, unless he acts to gain knowledge of the nature of things
by  Epicurus
