The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts: therefore, guard accordingly, and take care that you entertain no notions unsuitable to virtue and reasonable nature.

- Marcus Aurelius -

Been working on #1.(Truvia)

Dreaming about #2.

Pissed off @ #3 & $3K in the hole on a rug pull scam (crypto is a ponzi scheme-prove me wrong-algorithmic math equations hold no real value-Bitcoin is not gold)

#4 is honesty,reality and being nice. If You like those things you will like me.

#5 I don't like mean cruel angry people. They annoy me. And abusive people who hurt others and animals should just cease to exist...

What topic to choose is the hard part!?

You could choose any it seems and write about it...I'll keep an eye out to see which you end up choosing, if any. Have a good weekend.

Friday 5 am here. Off the road for a few days. That means some hard labor. I wish I was as motivated as you and could do a 5k run.

But the coffee is ready and I will walk to the kitchen and pour some 👍😉👍 ☕

Get into that coffee mate, I'll be having one soon also. It's almost 19:30 here..just chillin'.

"What are your thoughts, such is your life" are the words of the priest, father Tadej.
So similar to the thoughts of Marcus Aurelius.
Or the priest just retold them 🙂

I have chosen a topic 🙂

Maybe after I drink my Ness coffee I'll start writing, maybe not.

Maybe I'm just enjoying my day off today...

That looks like a nice place to be sipping on a coffee.

It's bed time here...well, a couple hours off bed time so no coffee.

Have a good weekend.

I was thinking along the same lines as He is... Just enjoying it.

Ouch, those are some tough ones! I was just writing in my post today about how my wife and I finally got a will and trust set up so that when we are gone our loved ones don't have to deal with figuring it out or fighting the courts for what happens to our "stuff".

 5 days ago (edited) 

Yep, having no last will and testament is pretty irresponsible for those left behind I think, a good thing you got it done.

In addition, I have power of attorney set up and care directives as well in the advent of my girl having to take over my affairs if I'm incapacitated and unable to do so and to make medical decisions for me if I cannot, like authorising operations or turning off life support. She has the same in reverse.

We got all of that set up as well. It was all included in the trust. Wills, trust, durable power of attorney, medical directives, and a lady bird deed for the house. Now we just need to decide if we want to get something pre-planned with the funeral home.

We are intending to do pre-paid funeral plans, very basic funerals in which we're burned to a crisp. I think it takes a lot of stress and burden off those left behind and considering one of us may die before the other, leaving one person to have to deal with it, we think it's a good thing.

I agree with all of that (even the burning) and we will likely get something similar planned out in the near future!

Great minds think alike, they say.

I don't really have another plan to secure my future. Crypto is already my plan B but it seems that plan A(rt) is not gonna secure that future for me. For sure not to a point there I could do international dating with a hot russian girl...😛 So at this point my plan is Crypto and if that will fail I will return to plan A and just fake my death.

Those hot Russian girls only respond to money or so I'm told, (a mate of mine had one he married who then divorced him at the first chance she got and took half of everything through the usual legal divorce process).

Anyway, hopefully between your art and crypto you'll manage to create the financial future you want.

at the first chance she got and took half of everything through the usual legal divorce process).

Good thing that I don't plan to marry her then. But meeting once or twice a year could be fun.

Great phrase! I loved it and totally true!

And the themes are great, I've already chosen mine, definitely. It's going to be a pleasure to be around. Have a great weekend.

That was a quick choice, I'll look out for it over the weekend.

Have a good one.

He called me immediately! I didn't even have to think about it. Thank you very much, I hope you had a great Friday.

These are actually really great questions. I have been thinking of which one to go for but then i still i haven't arrived at one. But i will definitely try to write about something

I'm sure you'll find the right one to pursue. Have a good weekend.

I just stopped in to take an art tour of the art behind you in the photo. 😄

Weekends are wonderful... aren't they? Somehow though, they just seem to pass to fast. I mean, when have you ever thought Monday and Tuesday were too short??? LOL....

I'm about to walk to work. 9 more hours.... and then the weekend gets to start.

Haha, yeah, that's a large painting my dad (an artist) painted which hangs on a wall in my house.

Get your last working day done and you'll have that weekend feeling like I have in no time!

First reason why people should like me: I'm anesthesiologist 😁

2nd: I'm a good talker

3rd: I love sports.

Oh yeah, being nice to the anesthesiologist (especially prior to the operation) is a good idea.

😂😂😂

Popped in to say hello and wish you a wonderful weekend.

Excellent, always good to hear from you. I hope you have a great weekend end also.

Pop in every so often, try make a few hours here and there. Have a grand time whatever you decide to do.

I love the variety in the topics, I think we will all find something that inspires us to sign up. Thanks so much for sharing bro, I'm sure we'll see you this weekend, a big hug in the distance!

P.S.: The frse you shared of Marcus Aurelius defines me just now 😍

I try always to have a selection so that there is something everyone might like.

I hope you have a great weekend mate, see you around.

Always love seeing the weekend topics roll in.
The quote by Marcus Aurelius is such a solid reminder to stay intentional with our thoughts, and it pairs beautifully with the tone and vibes of this week's prompt.
Looking forward to seeing what everyone shares.

Yeah, I'm glad you enjoy the topics and looking at what some of those who enter come up with. Have a good weekend.

Have a good weekend 😌😌

Nice one again! Thank you for hosting this and provoke thinking with yet another batch of interesting questions. Here's my entry for this week:

Thanks, I see it. ✅

I wish all participants the best in this.

Indeed.

I have had to stop posting two weekends in a row in the community on two weekend activities because of topics that you propose that I find necessary to participate and, in this weekend I will also have to stop doing it because there are two of the topics proposed in this week 256 in which I must decide on which one, but my participation will be in the initiative again. Have an excellent weekend. Greetings and best regards.

No worries.

Beautiful topics as always. Here is my entry;

Wish everyone a happy weekend.

Thanks.

I liked the 2nd topic: so if i didn't have to work I'll be traveling all around the world for sure.

That's a great plan!

Another week to be able to write with these good suggestions, this time sugar with all its sweetness takes over my emotions, I love everything that has to do with this delicious ingredient. I am convinced that I must give it up for good, I resist. Just by looking at these images I think my glycemia is high ha,ha,ha,ha,
