He feels a sense of wellbeing when he chooses to forgive excess and strives to do what is right. He follows traffic rules and stops at pedestrian crossings, and while cheating irritates him, he accepts fines without question unless a clear injustice is evident. Outside of the occasional benzodiazepine, he does not self-medicate. When visiting a doctor, he respects prescriptions and tends to question them sparingly. He is not inclined to rely on random internet findings for medical decisions and avoids unnecessary x-ray requests. He pays taxes, embraces honest work, and has never manipulated Social Security or faced unjust termination. He is the kind of person who follows mouthwash directions to the letter, even if staying quiet for the full recommended time proves uncomfortable. He trusts people who relinquish control and he loves them for their openness.
He finds genuine satisfaction in contributing to the greater good. He believes there is value in observing the world around him and recognizes that there are people in need who deserve support, even if the help is as small as providing practical resources. He holds that everyone has an ethical duty to contribute to the common good as much as possible. In everyday terms, it is like sweeping and mopping not only one’s own space but also the neighbor’s landing when necessary, showing care for the shared environment.
Predictability is part of his nature, and he favors hopeful conclusions. He roots for positive outcomes: harmony between loved ones, joyful children, and a future that feels bright. He particularly cherishes endings where vulnerable people are acknowledged and where the underdog prevails over the powerful. Recently, he welcomed the news that a monastery, known for its long-standing presence in central Palma, has been recognized as belonging to a revered monastic community. The space remains sober, homely, and peaceful, with a history tracing back to the fifteenth century and a role within the local diocese documented in 2014. The public narrative suggested the community sought more space than allotted, but his observation is that the space has been cared for and respected over the years.
When the faithful chose to relocate to a smaller monastery of the same order to improve living conditions, the diocese honored the new site by naming it after the sisters. It was claimed that the sisters ignored a noted cultural interest, yet a closer look reveals steady care, respect, and affection over time. Volunteers and professionals supported the monastic life, ensuring it remained vibrant and in good standing without flashy language or ostentatious equipment. Those who knew them describe thoughtful women who defend the monastery as a spiritual sanctuary amid the bustle of daily life. They carry with them a calm strength, grounded in reason and good intentions, and their example leaves a lasting impression on many observers.
It is unfortunate, however, that a faction within the Church—comprising a minority that wields influence in quiet, private ways—decides to provoke conflict and stage unnecessary spectacles. In such moments, hopeful outcomes appear scarce, and the tone of public discourse turns tense. Yet the overall narrative remains one of people who stay true to their values, seeking peace, respect, and a sense of shared purpose. The contrast between calm, constructive actions and needless confrontation highlights the enduring tension within a community that seeks reform and unity without sacrificing compassion or clarity.
