Hi reader,

Did you ever notice that certain things make us less conscious of ourselves?

Like when we are totally into a fresh song

Spending a fresh moment with someone we love

Or finally getting into flow with a new skill

Adulting can feel like boundaries and awareness and decorum

But the best things remind us that nature itself is boundless

The acorn is likely not worried if it will become a tree

Grass concerned about its growth after the winter frost

Or insects recognizing that this is not their beautiful life

They just grow

And build

And be 🌳

2025: The Year of the One-Card Wallet

When an entire team of financial analysts and credit card experts go to bat for the credit card they actually use, you should listen.

This card recommended by Motley Fool Money offers:

  • 0% intro APR on purchases and balance transfers until nearly 2027

  • Up to 5% cash back at places you actually shop

  • A lucrative sign-up bonus

All for no annual fee. Don't wait to get the card Motley Fool Money (and everyone else) can't stop talking about.

What pulls you out of yourself?

What quiets the inner voice?

What turns the camera off?

Some of us are taught a certain way to flow

Others have learned techniques simply to survive life

All of us have had to figure out what works best for ourselves

And the sad part isn’t that we have to routinely remember how to be human again

We should be so privileged to be able to tap into our inner selves

The tragedy is when we are afraid to even find that flow

Stuffing it into some future vacation,

Some moment after we achieve X,

Deserving of it when we get Y,

And waiting for a silent permission

That we will never get ⌛️
