    Priorities change with circumstances, but if you can't help yourself you are no good to anyone else, and if you can't pay it forward, instant karma's gonna getcha!

    Exactly right. I used to put other people first and neglect myself . Now I look after myself which means in turn . I can help others

    The worst jokes in life, are the ones we tell ourselves. Half of life is just showing up, while the other half is learning what is worth studiously ignoring, including our own nonsense.

    I believe we are here to serve others. Family, society, world... it's essentially all the same.

    Maybe keeping a healthy balance of all of it, is best.

    If you don't know where you're going, you might already be there, while everywhere you go, there you are! Chance favors the unprepared mind.

    Nah, I'm a shaman, and mother nature speaks to me in plain English sometimes. You have no clue what mind games are until you've met the Dragon, the treasure of Malaysia.
