In life's intricate tapestry, cherish your kin with grace,
Quell strife with love for your spouse, in their embrace.
Children seek solace in the calm of the night,
Hold loved ones so close, hope's just out of sight.
@Pontifex Let him guard the holy city; not only of Rome, but of reason, of reverence, of the sacred things we are told no longer matter.

Studying philosophy (I was a philosophy minor), was one of the most valuable things I did.
Philosophy teaches you how to think, consider a variety of viewpoints, expands & challenges you.
Deeply fulfilling and endlessly useful.
We’ve built systems around a currency that’s easier to print than to earn.
Meanwhile the things that actually hold value (trust, integrity, human connection) we treat like luxuries.

@KMNDR_ Survival and salvation have always been closer than we admit.
In those moments, you realize you cannot save yourself.
Finally understanding why salvation was offered in the first place.
@KMNDR_ Yes it is; Reality is not.
Comfort numbs us to consequence.
There are no atheists in foxholes, or burning buildings, or sinking ships.
When leisure swells, sin follows.
When the illusion of control shatters, the soul remembers what the mind tried to forget.
@KMNDR_ People are accountable for what they do;
Truth is objective and binding.
Responsibility is a non‑negotiable; it will hunt you down.
Habits and values produce excellence and Reality is coherent.
None of the above is very uninterested in our preferences.
