Today, I met a woman at a train station. We were standing together on the platform.
We exchanged smiles, and I went back to reading something on my phone.
When I looked up a few moments later, she was still looking at me. I smiled again. She smiled back. We looked away.

@Quillette@ShalnevaE Life becomes better when you can identify the qualities that make a person a good role model. This is something very important in society now because people have such a strong influence. We have to ask ourselves if the people we are giving power to are good role models
@Quillette@ShalnevaE Refreshing perspective. I enjoyed the part about "what will we tell our daughters." I think some people try to shield children (mainly girls) from the ugly truths of the world a bit too much.
So many resources are wasted, thrown into fire. There is so much advancement happening technologically. My concern is why aren't more people dedicated to implementing appropriate societal and political change that fosters equality in terms of people having their basic needs met
Selfish desires while people are out there starving to death. In my opinion this is one of my main irritations with the world. This relentless unnecessary consumption that is polluting our planet and our minds.
Modern tech has lowered the cost of insulting people, but the personal cost of feeling insulted remains as high as ever.
You can’t reform everyone who offends you, but you can manage your own responses.
When the stimulus is digital... assume you’re overreacting.
Stay centered.
@BonaireVolt @raderje@elonmusk@JRussell614 Mmhm and I can guarantee u none of those people even come close to having the talent and good hearted nature that Elon Musk has. Do not underestimate him because he will prove you wrong every time.
