HARBOUR

/ˈhɑːbə/
noun
a place on the coast where ships may moor in shelter, especially one protected from rough water by piers, jetties, and other artificial structures.

a sheltered body of water where ships, boats, and barges can be docked.

Do you know where or who the harbours are in your life? A place you plan to go regularly to rest, refuel, and be repaired for the journey? Ships aren’t built to stay in the harbour, each one is purpose built to be in water... rough water is inevitable, but no ship is expected to be out in rough water perpetually.

Each human being consists of a material body, animated by an immaterial personal self... some call this a soul or a spirit... the distinctness of a person’s conscious selfhood. How do you embody your personality, your essence, your soul? How do you relate to those around you and how do others really experience your presence?

Rule 5: “Don’t reject the responsibility to discipline your children just because you haven’t properly understood what that means. Rules should not be multiplied beyond necessity, that leads to frustration - so limit the rules and use minimum necessary force.” Jordan Peterson.
