3/10/2023 Taking Stock in Yourself

     A better future is predicated on what you do today. Every Sunday sit down with pen and paper and look at your life. Write down where you want to be a year from now and the steps your taking to make it happen. I failed on this score miserably. So this is in hind sight.  And hind sight is always 20  20. I even heard the Esop stories. Especially about the 3 pigs and the homes they built. Two of the three pigs got wiped out, the third lived-on because he built a solid brick structure. Putting money aside is a form of building with bricks. 

     If your not getting close to your goals. It's time to reevaluate your life's endeavors. Then make the changes. Don't be afraid to make mistakes it's the window to your future successes.

3/10/2023 There Will Always be Goofballs

     On an island in Norway sits the Svalearn seed vault that stores seeds from all over the world in case we do something stupid. Well in 2020 the Oreo people built a vault near by the seed vault. They wrapped these oreos nice and comfy to withstand extreme heat and cold conditions as well as wetness. Thank God for that.

    How about this. Let's work on becoming better human beings so we don't have to scrounge through the dark to get our oreo fixes. Call upon divine spirit to have the better life.

3/1/2023 Is It Really Only About Trying To Make A Buck

      The story today was a US company intention to launch 4 dead presidents remains into outer space to float for eternity in a metal capsule. I had to read that 3 times to make sure I read that right. George Washington is one of the lucky winners. I'm sure he will be thrilled. So these remains will be measured in grams not pounds. So I guess they're  doing this for publicity. Is it good publicity or bad  or it doesn't really matter. Either way it's nuts. Just more ways to waste money.

     Space the final frontier. We foul the Earth with trash and bad substances with the least bit of care. Now we trash near space with broken satellites that occasional rain down on Earth. The junk also can damage space stations and other functioning satellites. So we trash our planet and if it becomes too bad, we plan on going to other planets just in case we totally wreck ours. Makes no sense. Now they want to turn space into an amusement park for the rich. It's all about the Benjamins. 

    Look inward if you want the truth about who you are. Then peace will be yours.

2/28/2023 Me Too

      The movement that brought down the rich and powerful. A lot of women were preyed upon by these respected males. Many of them (young women) didn't see it coming. Some were able to get away and some did not. Some of these women were forced to sign ndas which are non disclosures agreements thought up by lawyers. You sign it or else. Plus for your trouble you will get some money.  Or sign it and he will not wreck your career or go after your family. Blackmail is what they call it. Yep they're a real class act, them and their enablers.

     The only one you can turn to is God. That connection is there. That connection is a little dusty. It needs cleaning. You clean it by asking questions of God. Then look for the answers that can come via dream state or throughout the course of your day. By doing this you will have your proof on how God can aid you in all things related to your life. By starting as a kid you will have the number 1 tool that is indispensable in the quality of your life to come. Whatever comes up, by asking God for his help, he is there waiting on you. If the women called on God during their duress their experiences might have been different. Calling on God is the Key. Spend a little time every day before breakfast and talk to God, he does listen.

2/23/2023 Help Earth Hurry!

      Those sentiments come from KoKo the gorilla just 2 years before she died.  Koko was born in 1971 at the San Francisco zoo. She was taught 1100 sign language words, during her life time. She also could understand some English words as well.  

     Maybe we should all heed Koko's words. She died in June 2018. Some people say she was coached into it.. But the animal could communicate what it wanted. So the animal made it short and sweet. It got it's point across. We can all do more.

     The manufacture of plastic has realeased micro plastics into the environment that can get into us. We can start by reducing the need for plastic in our every day life. Passing laws is a start to reducing the amount of plastic being manufactured.

2/15/2923 Tom White

  Was from the Boston area. A multimillionaire with 75 million in the bank. He made his fortune by taking his father's broken down construction business and building it up to one of the best in the Boston area.

    Growing up with an alcoholic father made him vow that his future kids would not have to put up with lacking conditions. Not too much money and not too much love. He made good on both. He went to Haiti and saw the poverty. One of the first projects he funded was an oven for a hamlet's needs. The oven was for bread. Prior to that the women would have to walk 25 mi to get it. Now they could make their own bread. Through the 70s up to the aughts Tom spread the money around for the poor in many countries. First he took care of his family. When he was at college he talked to a woman on the street. She lamented that she wished for a big red wagon to put the recyclables  in. The next day Tom was trailing a red wagon. The woman cried. That was the kind of guy that Tom was.

     Over the 3-4 decades Tom gave away his millions before he died. He did what he loved to do. It started that day as a kid. The thought,  with me things will be different and then he acted on it. Needless  to say it came to pass. He had the right attitude and focus.

2/3/2023 220 FT

      That's the distance  between the water and the railing of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. Kevin' knew as he dangled on the railing at the last minute that no he didn't want to die after all. He tells God on the way down. He hits the water at 75 miles per hour. 1 gulp of air at the last second. He needed that air to make it back up to the surface. Hard to do with 2 broken legs. He's  happy he survived the fall. However he sees something below him coming up toward him. He's thinking shark for sure. People nearby see something else. A harbor seal that looked like it was trying to help him out. The seal and him stayed together until harbor rescue ship got to him. Now he educates others that are pushed to the brink. This happened over 20 years ago.

      So,  God heard him on that railing and granted him his wish. That's how fast God can grant a prayer. Events were put in place immediately  up to and including the harbor seal. It worked for Kevin. It can work for you. Hopefully not as drastic as his situation. Despair? Hit a brick wall, try turning to God. He's listening.
