“In the general course of human nature, a power over a man’s subsistence amounts to a power over his will.” —Alexander Hamilton, Federalist 79

Drop The Rope
When they want control before they’re ready. When you know they’re wrong, yet they don’t. Maybe, just maybe, it is time to let them “smoke” — drop the rope.
The Death Hand’s Signal
from the notes of a palliative care nurse:
- I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
- I wish I hadn’t worked so hard.
- I wish I’d had the courage to express my feelings.
- I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
- I wish that I had let myself be happier.
