The Philosophy of Loyalty. Loyalty: It is the most two-faced of virtues—one that is absolutely necessary for one’s moral growth but also extremely easy to pervert. Hard to create and easy to destroy, it is a word for the downtrodden, for the hope, however slim, that one is not lost. According to Royce, loyalty was not a Kantian call to duty, but a heartfelt sense of belonging to a greater whole. Loyalty was the animating spirit of love and the power that could spare individuals from their feelings of quiet desperation. In the face of calamity, loyalty enters the scene, and though it might not save the day, it can make the day so much more bearable. ~American Philosophy, A Love Story

An herb garden in a greenhouse table that Ears put together for me. I will plant it tonight under the full wolf moon eclipse. Straight up old fashioned kitchen witchery.

What would you grow in a pot if you could? Money? Friends? Plane tickets?

And what would give up to have that? Your time, your freedom, your savings? If you don't want to give anything, don't want anything. That is the rule of wanting: be prepared to pay for it.
