Four Life Pillars for me today.

Life sits on four pillars.
They give stability, meaning and purpose to my being.
Yours may be others and that is fine, just take what works for you.

In no particular order this is what my four are.

Learn.
Learning about life and many other interesting topics. How to build a world and life that has meaning for me. Skills that are interesting and perhaps useful in building our society and civilisation.

Create.
Using the knowledge and skills learnt so far in my journey to enhance my quality of life and impact the world and society we live in, for the better.

Maintain.
Look after what we have and ensure it is not wasted.

Love.
Love everything around us and in particular our family.

At this stage of my life I tend to spend quite a lot of my time doing what I call maintenance work. Tidying in the garden or fixing little jobs in the home, various bits of administration and paying bills etc. What I particularly like is learning new things that might lead me to generating additional income or solving maintenance jobs that are a bit tricky. One of which was learning how to safely clip the duck's wings to stop her flying out of her pond.
Learning about the world and other people is also a main interest.

But ultimately Love of all things and all people brings my life back to my partner and our families. Being here for them and protecting them as best as I can. And do unto others as you would wish them to do unto you.

With love,

Chris

Donald Trump verses World Health Orgainsation

Donald may have a point when he questions how the WHO initially handled its relationship with China and the COVID19 outbreak. However cutting off funding will only ensure it CANNOT learn and improve its response now, and for any new Pandemic that arrises.

If one looks at how Donald Trump handled his response (denial etc.) to the early spread of the virus and his ongoing actions, I suggest that his performance has been very seriously flawed.

No organisation or  leader can handle the pandemic perfectly, but all must learn and be prepared for the next one. Cutting off WHO funding is like shooting your self in the foot!!

Working together is critical for the future of the Human race.
