Whenever I am up in Ithaca, I get to truly relax, but I also get to reflect. This time has been much different, because I have some serious questions hanging over me and they are and will continue to have an enormous impact on my life. Those questions will not be asked on this page. What will be asked are questions I've found myself asking based on what I'm seeing from the world from afar. I do not have answers I wish to share at this very moment, but they are things I will share in the future.
If the world were to become blind, would your perception of beauty change?
If a mother/wife who is surrounded by her family, continuously claims to be alone, are they really a mother/wife?
Is it normal to rarely grieve?
Think of the five people you know who have the most education. Now think of the five people who are most financially successful. I'm assuming right now, you have pretty much the same list. Now think of the five most intelligent people you know. Any matches?
Maybe I'm naive, but isn't maturity simply knowing when to stop always looking for something better and enjoy ALL that you already have?
Is there anything more sad than someone whose primary reason to better themselves is for someone else to notice?
The most counter-productive invention ever is the snooze button, but is there anything better in the world than having someone say "just five more minutes" when you're cuddling in bed?
