One of the most valuable things a person can possess is... perspective. Get up too close and you can't see what's right in front of you; that's where things hide when they are in plain sight. Get too far away and it is hard to distinguish individual characteristics, AND the same thing happens inside your mind... when you deal with memory, and time, and... the ability to focus.

So... perspective is empowered and enhanced by other features which it is also good to have on call, like discrimination... discernment... insight... intelligence... clarity, and we could sidestep into personal qualities, like Honor and Integrity. These can... as greatly influence perspective... as the lack of them does.

It turns out that both of these... tools... that they say tried to assassinate the President-Elect... were connected to Black Rock. Sherwin Williams may cover The World, but Black Rock would have you believe they own The World. Still, and... you have to assume this... someone owns Black Rock and someone owns whoever it is that owns Black Rock.

If you don't own what goes on inside your head... then someone else does, and that is the case with a great many people now who are too busy to engage in introspection. Squatting on private property is now becoming a problem in America. It has been a problem for much longer in people's heads. Someone else is squatting in many people's heads... without them knowing much about it.

The way to find out what is going on in your head; what is REALLY going on in your head... is to empty it out. Call it Spring Cleaning in advance of Spring. One thing you can be sure of... if you empty out your house or... empty out your mind... is that you will have a lot more room to move around in. Of course, there is a reason we have furniture, BUT... Stuff... is increasingly more and more of a problem than it ever was.

People's heads are filled with useless Stuff as well. Trivia used to be a pejorative. It comes from the word, trivial. Now it's considered something of an asset in the shallow end of the pool. Certain behaviors used to be looked upon as perverse, but now they get you into the better clubs if you advertise them.
