Thanks for sharing Moose. These thoughts remind me of the following by Thomas Jefferson:
"The art of life is the art of avoiding pain. And the most effectual means of being secure against pain is to retire within ourselves, and to suffice for our own happiness. Those, which depend on ourselves, are the only pleasures a wise man will count on: for nothing is ours which another may deprive us of. Hence the inestimable value of intellectual pleasures."
Peace
