Cultivate Wise Thoughts

"So little of how we see the world is based on fact and reality, and so much is based on subjective perceptions and interpretations. This is why unwise thoughts can be so destructive and wise thoughts can be so empowering. Choose to cultivate wise thoughts. We can't always choose how we feel, but we can choose what thought patterns and narratives we want to nurture."

Our next door neighbor on the other side of the condo wall is doing construction at 8:00am this Saturday morning. Long sequences of tap-tap-tap, followed eventually by inescapable drilling sounds.

Yes, it disturbs the quiet. But, it improves his unit and his resale value, and so our property value. Plus, I'm sure there are times where we make noise that he tolerates. People deserve slack.
