“Silly” thoughts… – part 2
A few days ago, I shared my first "silly" thoughts toot in a blog post. I wrote another toot, so I wanted to make another blog post as well, featuring this thought. I do think that I wrote about this, in a different way, a while ago. That post can be found here: Stand still & look around… I'll try to write this post from a different perspective. I don't know if I'll really succeed... But I'll try nevertheless. 😉 I'll share a shameful confession, below the read more bit... And then I'll try to explain it, in the best way I can. Because I know that thoughts, feeling, and emotions are very personal, and they can mean different things to different people. 😊 […]https://cynnisblog.wordpress.com/2026/03/25/silly-thoughts-part-2/

A quotation from James Shirley
All buildings are but monuments of death,
All clothes but winding-sheets for our last knell,
All dainty fattings for the worms beneath,
All curious musique, but our passing bell;
Thus death is nobly waited on, for why?
All that we have is but death’s livery.James Shirley (1596–1666) English poet, playwright
Poem (1639), “Fatum Supremum,” Facetiae: Wits Recreations, Epigram 170 (1640)More about this quote: wist.info/shirley-james/82604/

And so, you see, simplicity

With only what we brought.Bruce Holland Rogers (b. 1958) American author [pseud. Hanovi Braddock]
“A Common Night,” Fantastic Alice (1995) [ed. Margaret Weis]More about this quote: wist.info/rogers-bruce-holland…

A quotation from Roger Corless
We make ourselves miserable by first closing ourselves off from reality and then collecting this and that in an attempt to make ourselves happy by possessing happiness. But happiness is not something I have, it is something I myself want to be. Trying to be happy by accumulating possessions is like trying to satisfy hunger by taping sandwiches all over my body.
Roger J. Corless (1938–2007) Anglo-American religious academic, Buddhist scholar, ecumenicist

A quotation from Samuel Johnson
Thus it comes to pass, that our desires always increase with our possessions; the knowledge that something remains yet unenjoyed, impairs our enjoyment of the good before us.
Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) English writer, lexicographer, critic
Essay (1753-06-26), The Adventurer, No. 67More info about this quote: wist.info/johnson-samuel/8509/

The point of #possessions in our lives is to have a small to decent sized #collection of stuff (whether it’s books, clothes, physical media, decor, etc…) that’s tailored to our #interests that we cherish for as long as we still can and not see the purpose of getting more.

A quotation from Franklin Roosevelt
Happiness lies not in the mere possession of money; it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort. The joy and the moral stimulation of work no longer must be forgotten in the mad chase of evanescent profits. These dark days, my friends, will be worth all they cost us if they teach us that our true destiny is not to be ministered unto but to minister to ourselves and to our fellow men.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882-1945) American lawyer, politician, statesman, US President (1933-1945)
Speech (1933-03-04), Inaugural Address, Washington, D.C.More info about this quote: wist.info/roosevelt-franklin-d…

The whole “protect the #children” stuff makes a lot more sense when you realize that they treat their children like their #possessions, so it’s less “let our children live their best lives” and more “don’t mess with my long term #investment”

I have somewhere met with the epitaph of a charitable man, which has very much pleased me. I cannot recollect the words, but the sense of it is to this purpose: What I spent I lost; what I possessed is left to others; what I gave away remains with me.

Essay (1711-09-27), The Spectator, No. 177Sourcing, notes: wist.info/addison-joseph/78303…

But to go mad with watching, nights and days,
To stand in dread of thieves, fires, runaways
Who filch and fly, — in these if wealth consist,
Let me rank lowest on the paupers’ list.
[An vigilare metu exanimem, noctesque diesque
formidare malos fures, incendia, servos,
ne te conpilent fugientes, hoc iuvat? Horum
semper ego optarim pauperrimus esse bonorum.]Horace (65-8 BC) Roman poet, satirist, soldier, politician [Quintus Horatius Flaccus]

A quotation from Matthew Henry
His wealth: He was very rich, v. 2. He was very heavy, so the Hebrew word signifies; for riches are a burden, and those that will be rich do but load themselves with thick clay, Hab. ii. 6. There is a burden of care in getting them, fear in keeping them, temptation in using them, guilt in abusing them, sorrow in losing them, and a burden of account, at last, to be given up concerning them. Great possessions do but make men heavy and unwieldy.
Matthew Henry (1662-1714) English writer, religious philosopher
Exposition of the Old and New Testament, Genesis 13:2 (1706)Sourcing, notes: wist.info/henry-matthew/75732/

Here is a piece I published previously, now revised and republished in my Substack. Sooner or later things we depend upon break down. How we react to that is up to us

A man wanted to know what he needed to do in order to have eternal life; Jesus said God alone was good, and to do the commandments.
He said he had done such things; Jesus loved him and told him to sell his #possessions, give to the poor, and follow Jesus.
He went away sorrowful since he was wealthy.

@ElizabethLeeCo @horror @horrorfilm that is a good movie, I watched it last month as part of my #Possessions marathon.

This morning I started with Ghost stories 2018 on Shudder after doing my laundry & now that breakfast, dishes & my showers are done I am going to sit back & enjoy the last 4 I left on Tubi today, starting with Winchester 2018, Haunt 2019, Hosts 2020 & 3 demons 2022. I've seen these all before so nothing new today but this way once I clear off all the #Possessions movies off Tubi I can start looking on it for movies for next months marathon. #MyHorrorfest #ghosts #demons #horror

Before breakfast I'm watching the Black phone & the Pope's exorcist, the last 2 movies I have in my collection for #Possessions marathon but I still have a list of about 40 movies to go through that are streaming, some are new to me. I will get to that list later cuz I've got other stuff to do this morning 1st. So any suggestions of any #Demons or #Ghost type movies that came out after 2020 that are on Shudder, Prime, Netflix or Disney that may not already be on my list? #MyHorrorfest #Horror

I've already enjoyed a couple of favs that I haven't collected yet, on Shudder I found the Autopsy of Jane Doe 2016 & on Prime Southbound 2016. After breakfast & getting a few chores done I'm enjoying the last 3 Warren movies that I've collected Annabelle comes home (or as I like to refer to it Adventures in babysitting), the Conjuring 3: the Devil made me do it & the Nun 2. #MyHorrorfest #Possessions #Horror

#Quotes #Truth #Stuff #Possessions #Weary
A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
Every increased possession loads us with new weariness. -John Ruskin, author, art critic, and social reformer (8 Feb 1819-1900) -
"It’s so fucking insane to me that #material #possessions and #merchandise is #valued more highly in this #country than #human lives and physical well-being. Saw a video of a guy who had been accused of shoplifting a single pizza (which he had paid for) being violently pinned to the ground by three #cops, one of whom was threatening to break his nose while he calmly told them to check the receipt he had and confirm he had #lawfully #purchased the #pizza. The comments were like “if he shoplifted he deserved that” and “even if he didn’t shoplift, I bet they tackled him because he was resisting arrest” that level of violence over an freeze pizza is insane in any fucking context no matter how much dickridding you are going. Fuck #Walmart. Fuck loss prevention. Fuck cops."
