Please, don’t worry so much. Because in the end, none of us have very long on this Earth. Life is fleeting.
The human spirit is more powerful than any drug and THAT is what needs to be nourished: with work, play, friendship, family. THESE are the things that matter.
Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field. I’ll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass the world is too full to talk about.

Investment philosophy is the clear understanding that by owning shares of stocks, one owns businesses, not pieces of paper.
When people walk away from you, let them go. Your destiny is never tied to anyone who leaves you, and it doesn’t mean they are bad people. It just means that their part in your story is over.
