Bertrand Russell’s Ten Commandments

Do not feel absolutely certain of anything. Do not think it worth while to proceed by concealing evidence, for the evidence is sure to come to light. Never try to discourage thinking for you are sure to succeed. When you meet with opposition, even if it should be from your spouse or your children, endeavor to overcome it by argument and not by authority, for a victory dependent upon authority is unreal and illusory. Have no respect for the authority of others, for there are always contrary authorities to be found.

When you travel , travel for yourself not for others. Living the moment will never be the same as capturing it to relive it later. Do you want to relive the moment when you were taking the picture? There are no retakes in life, everything happens just once and then something else happens. This is what makes life exciting. Think about it. No one will remember your checkins , your selfies, your travel pics, your quotes, your shares, your likes and even your opinions. Not even for a week.  So who are you capturing it for? And why are you capturing it. Do you want people to see how beautiful your life is or how beautiful you are? Do you want people to acknowledge you? Do you want to feel special, loved, accepted? You already are! Have you forgotten it? Or did you miss it? Did you miss it because you were taking a picture? Think about it. Or do you just want to be remembered? Remembered by whom and remembered for what?
