July 22, 2015 I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done. I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them. I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC. |
Share an instance in your life when you would have liked a do-over.  “It's not that we spend five days looking forward to just two. It's that most people do what they enjoy most on those two days. Imagine living a life where everyday are your Saturdays and Sundays. Make everyday your weekend. Make everyday a play-day…”― James A. Murphy, The Waves of Life Quotes and Daily Meditations https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/tag/sunday Do-Over If it's anything at all, it is, that I should have had more knowledge to share with my children. I was deliberately kept as ignorant as family could manage. Basically, I have come to realize that my life is what it is. In spite of manipulation about my education and deliberate with holding of things my Mom would have taught me; I still managed to exist in the face of adversity. I now understand that my knowledge was imperative, proper experience, and ability to give, where giving is important, was all manipulated by relatives, who did not want me to succeed. Now, when they ask I have no ability to aid or express. So, my loss is their loss. I read a book written by a journalist, who reports from the Vatican. He wrote that one time Pope Benedict told people to stop trying to get information from him because he was not an Oracle. It made me laugh, because I have had the same experience. I don't moan over the losses I just move forward into today's moment. I personally find, that I must move with the times to complete the time I'm given. ![Merit Badge in Point of View
