“The frequent use of any word in this manner brings it insensibly to have all the effect of the proper term whose place it was intended to supply: no sooner is this effect produced by it, than the same principle that influenced us at first to employ it operates with equal strength in influencing us to lay it aside, and in its stead to adopt something newer and still more remote.”

“Health and Sickness (The Sonnet) Health doesn't always come from pills, Health comes through being mindful. Pills just help bring down the barriers, That clutter the body with deadly ghoul. Wellness is not the absence of sickness, It's the capacity to overcome sickness. Some sickness are the norm of nature, Others are products of our own foolishness. The opposite of sickness is not its absence, The opposite of sickness is its awareness. To treat sickness we must first acknowledge it, Sickness acknowledged is sickness half treated. In the end, health favors those who favor humility. Sustainability favors those who favor simplicity.”
