I should've taken my camera to the hair salon for today's photo... So a couple months back I was feeling kind of crummy, I'd put on nearly 30 pounds in the last year and a half and was sitting at 240 lbs, torn the hamstring, was having the blood pressure creep up and was having heel problems and feeling old in general. About early March I realized it's going to be a long summer if I don't do some

Is this not an unbelievable photograph? A bike parked in, yes, 1985 in Kerala, India. It has stood there for an amazing 23 years. And has virtually been swallowed by the tree. The owner is still in Saudi Arabia!Somehow, the photograph which I received through email, reminds of what happened to the Indian economy during the socialism instigated, not inspired, Licence Permit Raj when Indian politicians and bureacrats, in a pincer movement quite like the one by the tree above, shackled, stalled, robbed and suffocated the Indian economy almost to death! That is what happens to both nations and individuals when they allow the control of their lives and destinies to pass into parasitic hands which use them unsparingly to pursue their own agendas!To some, of course, it will appear that the bike

This is a pretty good article that may help you understand what's going on and why.Raise your hand if you don’t quite understand this whole financial crisis. It has been going on for seven months now, and many people probably feel as if they should understand it. But they don’t, not really. The part about the housing crash seems simple enough. With banks whispering sweet encouragement, people bought homes they couldn’t afford, and now they are falling behind on their mortgages.Read the entire article here

“Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp, or what's a heaven for?”-Robert BrowningWhat I love about this quote is how it sets forth a permissive, even noble, view of trying something new or outlandish and then failing. All too often we beat ourselves up emotionally when we set a lofty goal and don't achieve the success we hope. Eventually this results in the depressing decision to try nothing new lest another failure await. But Browning's quote reminds us that to strive for what we may not appear worthy or capable of achieving can be one of the highest attributes of a person. The trick is to not be arrogant in the quest for the summit. In the Greek myth Icarus fell from the sky for flying too close to the sun, but its good exercise to strive for what we've previously been un

Too often, people use excuses for why they are where they are in life. Either it is someone else's fault, the economy's fault, the company's fault or the government's fault. But the truth is, it is ALWAYS Their OWN Fault. We are always where we are due to decisions we made. Period!Regardless of the circumstances in life, the decision to accept those circumstances or to fight them by changing direction, is entirely up to you. When did our society convince us that we had to accept what we were handed in life? We were all created with the ability to control our future, so when did we give that control over to other people?This is especially true when it comes to finances. If you feel you do not have control over your finances, then take a very hard look at where your money comes from.

[Copyright notice this is my stuff and carries with it jws blogprint] You ain’t alone, brother.  I recently drove past a local church that was advertising a special ‘Agape Service’,  “Wow,” I thought, “I’d hate to be at one of their regular services…”                  It is this writer’s opinion that the idea of ‘agape’ love has been a bit blown out of proportion by modern day Christians.  There are several different words that the Greeks used to talk about love and these words have been examined in great depth by many.  I recommend the article “Love… Greek Style” by Bro. Tony Denton, if you wish to get into detailed definitions of these words.  But I want to focus on the much bally-hooed word agape.  Read on –> I think there is an idea that there must be a specially set aside sort of love that can only be had in respect to our creator towards us or a specifically Chri
