Supporting A Person

I've learned some things,About supporting somebody; When they want advice,Give it, When they don't,Support them in their decisions,Help them to see it through; Help them to make the best of their situation,No matter what it is and on their terms,Whilst simply being a friend; The best thing you can give is unconditional support,Which is exceedingly … Continue reading Supporting A Person →

Slowing The Rot Of Increasing Inequality

How do we stop inequality from increasing?I don't know,But I think there are some important ideas for us individually,Some ways in which we can at least reduce our own contribution— By thinking about what we can do,Over what we have, By thinking about how we can help,Over how we can outcompete, By thinking about how … Continue reading Slowing The Rot Of Increasing Inequality →

To Be Successful?

Isn't it amazing,How deeply it runs, —The definition of success,Being how much you've earned? How much of a virtue,Isn't entrepreneurship?To be a self-made person,From rags to riches; It obviously isn't,And never has been,But it runs so deeply that,Even the most well-meaning are infected, It makes for uncomfortable observing,From my high horse,No, only joking,I genuinely find … Continue reading To Be Successful? →
