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. |
What specific character traits do you want to be remembered for?  I hope anyone who remembers me remembers me accurately. I just finished reading The Red Tent by Anita Diamant. It is a historical novel that depicts an elongated history of Dinah the daughter of Jacob and Leah. It stirs up some controversial things about biblical accounts. According to Wikipedia, Most of the actions are considered fictional although the historical settings are very vivid. It interests me about how this book is influencing me to think about people's character traits. The authors descriptions of characters we read about in the bible are strong. It's the kind of insight I think about when I read scriptural stories. I don't see how you can keep making inaccurate memories about someone unless you discuss personally with them about motives for life actions. That just does not happen very often unless you are a closely knit friend even if you are related. There are people who are terrified about saying anything about someone who has died? Actions have some kind of reason behind them. Sometimes bad actions can be remembered but you don't know why a person would have performed the actions. What forces drove them to one action or another? Good character traits can be over ridden by forces in life. Bad traits can make someone see the error in bad actions. I'm in favor of a round table discussion of dead relatives to make sense of what life is throwing at the living. I'll probably regret this idea.  I'm not sure even which ones I really have. I'll probably be described as a character. . Just so, I''ll list some, honesty, loyalty, positivity, productive. , Are these traits? The down side would be angry, loud, misinterpretation. I can be these sometimes.Sincerely, I think? ![Merit Badge in Appreciation
