Sometimes things don't go as planned. And sometimes the best plans don't work out. As far as we can see into the future-- which isn't very far at all – we cannot see the unexpected.

There's an old manuscript that has this in it: "Give careful thought to what you're doing:  You work hard, but have little; you eat, but are never filled; you drink, but you're still thirsty; you're never satisfied.  You buy nice clothes, but they are never enough, and you never have enough money because your pockets … Continue reading What Are You Putting in Your Bucket?

Somehow moving stuff around while dusting, I had managed … Continue reading Point of Reference

“Among the forces that have shaped human behavior boredom is one of the most insistent and universal.” That was the conclusion sociologist Robert Nisbet came to in his assessment of human history. “Although scarcely as measurable a factor in history as war, disease, economic depression, famine, and revolution,” he said, “it is far from invisible … Continue reading Idle Hands
