I always believe more people can give more than they think they can. Not that those of us who do are saints, of course. But I definitely took from 'How the Force Can Fix the World' that our energies can be more focussed on who around us is in real need and what we can do about that, individually and as communities, rather than what we don't have. Ultimately it feels better to focus and live like this. (‘Shameless plug for your book’ alert!)
that's kind of you to reference the book. Im so glad it left an impact of some kind. I want to be more giving in 2024. In some ways writing these posts are me working on myself, reminding ME to do these things. Hoping others pick up on it for themselves as well.
I need to re-watch The Hobbit films. I saw the first one in the theaters and literally fell asleep. I've seen the other two but only once. I thought they were fine but incredibly bloated and a huge disappointment compared to the Lord of the Rings films.

We all need a reminder especially after a hard working week. Or month. :D

I hear this often. That the first is a good effort thats worth watching, the rest are messy...but warm feelings abound regardless - Stephen
I just re-watched The Hobbit last week - full of truly good insights. Thank you for yours.
