Our 2nd greatest ongoing concern in life should be that of the welfare of our fellow human beings -JUST HOW IS IT THAT THE MOST INTELLIGENT, MOST CAPABLE, MOST DOMINANT CREATURE ON THIS PLANET FAILS -WHERE SO MANY OF GOD’S LOWER CREATURES THRIVE??? It’s quite simple really “MAN BELIEVES HE IS THE EXCEPTION TO THE RULE -THAT HE CAN NOT ONLY SURVIVE, BUT THRIVE NOT BY UNITY, NOT BY ISOLATION, BUT BY EXPLOITATION, BY OPPRESSION, BY INTIMIDATION OF HIS FELLOW MAN (AND FELLOW CREATURES)!”

Our very lives, as ex-problem drinkers, depend upon our constant thought of others and how we may help meet their needs [Source: Alcoholics Anonymous; Chapter 2; pg 20].

Every day is a day when we must carry the vision of God’s will into all of our activities. “How can I best serve Thee—Thy will (not mine) be done.’’ These are thoughts which must go with us constantly. We can exercise our will power along this line all we wish. It is the proper use of the will. [Source: Alcoholics Anonymous; Chapter 6; pg 85].

Perhaps the greatest example of a human being having strayed from God’s perfect design is that of a parent who places other concerns above the welfare of their own children 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️ I (once) knew such a man! 😔

People have a job to do; people have to do something to stay busy… AND BOY DO THEY EVER!

In modern day America everyone wants to get paid -If there’s any issues they’ll tell you to pay for it anyways and they’ll sort it out later. That’s what eBay said regarding issues with the tax percentage being charged on these 2 bibles I just purchased.

And fewer and fewer companies do refunds either anymore -they all want to do credits. People and their continually manipulating ways. Paying young people to sit around ALL-THE-LIVE-LONG-DAY trying to figure out how to squeeze more money out of the American public. The increasingly desensitized generations seem to be working out great for corporate America 🇺🇸.

A PERSON CAN ALWAYS AFFORD TO SELL SOMETHING FOR WHATEVER PRICE HE’S WILLING TO ACCEPT; BUT A PERSON CANNOT ALWAYS PAY FOR SOMETHING WHATEVER PRICE A PERSON IS WILLING TO ASK 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

I believe the length of time regarding how we feel about somebody -the ability of those feelings to survive… largely depends on our reasons for choosing to get involved with them to start with. 🤔

From start to finnish

The beginning determines the end?

The ends validate the beginnings -and the beginnings justify the ends? I’m sleepy, not shore what I’m gibbering about lol

If it starts out wrong -it’s probably not going to end good! Stan-

The Blacks he was innocent

The whites all thought he was guilty

How bout we all just look for the truth -whatever that may turn out to be! 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

It’s bad enough, what happened-without spinning it! 😏

It’s easy for a person who has everything to get anything they want; but not because they have everything -but because of the nature of those around them.* 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

*Believe it or not some people actually respond to having their butt kissed.

For some decades now I’ve thought of brilliant’s, genius is nothing more than an openness to what is already there they’re-that which already exists around us. Like Michael Angelo chipping away at the statue which was merely under the excess.

I needed to comment on the story about Tesla wanting to provide free electricity to the world through his work in Colorado. Work that was apparently short-lived due to funding issues with a J.P. MORGAN who upon discovering THERE WAS NO MONEY TO BE MADE ON HIS INVESTEMENT -PULLED THE PLUG IN A(N) (UN)TIMELY FASHION! The very same man who was rumored to set in motion the toppling of the national banking system and setting into motion the Great Depression. A man whose name is all over the place in high finance.

Thanks to reading the Wikipedia article on Tesla…

2 things I disagree with; I remembered the 1st one the other day:

•The speed of light is not the fastest speed that can be achieved (now remember this initial thought came some 25 years ago while in school). Rocket after rocket after rocket or centrifugal…

•I do not believe a person is stuck with a set IQ (25 years ago or so as well)

Now, I’m recalling the notion of a device that runs off it’s own power infinitely. My Uncle Harry had something he showed as many years ago – It was this round device about 3″ in diameter, couple of inches tall… It had something similar to a flat surface surface with a protruding point in point in the middle and then an 8th of an inch from it another protruding point elongated (both subtly).

I remember when grandma and grandpa Hurd (correct spelling) and Uncle Harry came down to visit it us in Van nuys… I was about 10 years old maybe – Uncle Harry was asking me some questions* (he was also a teacher I believe-like grandma and uncle Frank (his siblings)). Uncle Frank was born in 1895, grandma 1899, uncle Harry 1902? They were Protestants? Grandma’s mother’s maiden name was Miller. I believe they had come in through Detroit from Canada.Grandma and her siblings grew up in Niagara Falls Canada. Uncle Harry have a zeal for inventing. Her maiden name was Giauque.

*Anyways come on one of the questions I recall him asking was If you have a container that is 5″ square at its base at its base and an opening that is 10″ square, and it is raining… How quickly will the water rise? Chuckles 😃 I have no clue! Anyways, grandma Hurd asked him to quit, cause I didn’t know the answer. Very perceptive Lady! 😉
