MY NOTEBOOK
A thought.
Worth keeping.
Some ideas arrive with an argument attached. Others begin with a question that will not leave me alone.
This is where I give those thoughts a little room. A short note can say something an essay would only repeat. An unfinished idea can be useful if I am honest about what remains to be worked out.
I write about what I value, how I make decisions, what deserves to be built and what makes life worth enjoying. Conviction has a place here. So does the willingness to take another look.

The questions I want answered before an attractive thought becomes an expensive undertaking.
Wealth, and the life it serves
I see earned wealth as an achievement and a means of living more freely. Neither requires an apology.
