A Violation of Privacy –

A lack of freedom. Mark Twain got it right. The phone belongs in the closet. “Don’t call me, I’ll call you”. Better yet. Don’t let it ring and allow texting only. Going on vacation with a smart phone is really dumb. Just un-invent the ringer.

A Feeling of Being Loved –

A mother. A saint. She picked up old ladies walking on the side of the road. They went grocery shopping together. They had tea together and I got to witness this in a dark smelly house. How do you forget something like that?

a clutter in my life

A Place To Start The Reduction –

A source is the mailbox. The paper just keeps coming and it stacks up because you’re not ready to do something about it. That includes my bank statement which includes $0.07 tax withholding. When I go online, my checking account is blocked until I fill out a tax withholding form which includes an agreement to go paperless. They don’t need my permission to withhold 7 cents every month or to block my online statement but they do need my permission to go paperless which now is my only access. Thank you USAA.

A Translation Problem – 

A commander or another interpretation problem if you are looking for the king of the north. There are eight different words in 52 different translations: princes 24, commanders 10, officers 7, officials 5, generals 2, leaders 2, principalities 1, subordinates 1. The word prince suggests a family member unlike the other seven words which have a similar meaning. Makes you wonder about words used in other parts of the bible. These are major differences in words used before you get to the problem of interpreting them. Reader beware.
