3. TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION
After a great quality time with Son and Missus for my birthday, it's back to the normal routine. After a lot of reflecting yesterday on how I got to this point, I'm keen to move on to do new things and make new differences, and generally enjoy the movie experience that constitutes "life".

Women are twice as likely to suffer from depression than men. Women may be at a higher risk for depression due in part to estrogen, which may alter the activity of neurotransmitters that contribute to depression.

9. ZEN WISDOM
It is not about how others are or how society is. The most important thing is to ask yourself, “What can I do?” One who stands up with moral courage and conviction can change society and create waves of transformation around the world.
