Is Life itself but many ways of thought,
Does thinking furl the poets’ pleiades,
Is in His slightest convolution wrought
These mantled worlds and their men-freighted seas?
He thinks—and being comes to ardent things:
The splendor of the day-spent sun, love’s birth,—
Or dreams a little, while creation swings
The circle of His mind and Time’s full girth . . .
As here within this noisy peopled room
My thought leans forward . . . quick! you’re lifted clear
Of brick and frame to moonlit garden bloom,—
Absurdly easy, now, our walking, dear,
Talking, my leaning close to touch your face . . .
His All-Mind bids us keep this sacred place!
NOTE: There are lots of cultural pressure to chase wealth. Yet, chasing wealth isn’t a guarantee of happiness. When we tap into discovering our life’s true meaning we link to our destiny. We may not acquire great wealth, we will acquire great satisfaction, happiness, and personal peace. It takes heaps of courage. Here’s hoping you are following your bliss.
“Set intentions for your day: Have you noticed that when you’re shopping for a new car, it suddenly seems that every vehicle you see is the exact model you’re considering? That’s because your brain can only actually consciously perceive part of what’s going on around you at any time. What you notice is whatever matches things that are already top-of-mind. It’s a phenomenon researchers call “selective attention” and it’s why Webb suggests you become more deliberate about setting your intentions for the day.” Source
Note: What is your primary intention today? The intention you choose is consequential for the kind of day you’ll have. When we chose to get even with someone, our day will be filled with anger and recalling past grievances. Conversely, if we choose an intention to do a good deed for someone or to successfully complete a task, we’ll be filled with positive energy. It doesn’t seem to be a difficult choice. Yet, to make it, we have to be awake to what is happening in our minds when we start the day. We have the power to set our intention.

Fatty liver disease refers to a condition where people develop fat in their liver, and people most at risk are those with type 2 diabetes or people who have overweight or obesity. And since people with fatty liver disease don’t always get symptoms, they can be completely unaware they have it. To prevent fatty liver disease, you may want to add some olive oil to your diet. People who added extra-virgin olive oil to their Mediterranean plan were observed to have a lower prevalence of developing it, versus those who followed a low-fat diet or those who only added nuts to their diet, according to a July 2019 study published in the Journal of Nutrition. While it may seem counterintuitive to add fat to protect against developing a fatty liver, researchers indicate that extra-virgin olive oil may aid in glucose control, which can help protect you from developing type 2 diabetes, a risk factor for the disease.
