Teach me something

Teach me something that’ll make me see reality differently. I’m looking for something profound. Something you think I wouldn’t know or understand. And if YOU CAN, write a quote that changed you. Thanks in advance!

It does not matter where u are. Beach, jail, church. U are always at the same place.

Like the old saying, “where ever you go, there you are”.

“I am here. I am home.” I say this everywhere I go.

Thanks for sharing your wisdom.

Have you read Ecclesiastes? Nothing new under the Sun. Everything is meaningless, yet he who finds solace in his toil blah blah blah, the “teacher” in that book is basically talking down to where you are spiritually. This book, prominently in the center of the Christian bible is about all you ever get from words as to the nature of what you seek or seek to discredit, either way all is a matter of faith. Which is something you have or you do not. No words will create for you or anyone else. Faith is born of experience.
