A suggestion from my father. Don’t forget to listen. He knew me well. I spent too much time thinking about what I was going to say. It is time to listen.

a one thing to change about myself
a personal trait most valued
A Thinker –
A need to make sense of everything. My dad often said to me, “Sometimes we think too much.” One Christmas his brother gave all my brothers and sisters a dollar but gave me this cartoon of someone sitting behind a desk with the caption, “I am so smart I make myself sick”. I didn’t like being singled out so early in life and had to think about that.

A Someone Who Can’t See Me –
A Thinker. A seeker of truth. A voice crying in the wilderness. A commentator on the Apocalypse. Reasonably smart. I use reason, logic, and the common meaning of words. The Lord is my Shepherd. 31

a thing that gets better with age
A Thinker –
A knowledge shall increase. The thinker doesn’t always learn what works but he easily finds out what doesn’t. 11
a favorite thing about myself
A Thinker –
A time to think about me. Can you overthink it? The real danger is not to think at all. Meditate and let God control your thinking.

A Beginning of An Autobiography –
A thinker who took the time to make sense of what he saw. He didn’t listen because he didn’t like what he was hearing. That is the way I would like to be remembered. It had to make sense and I would keep thinking until it did. Socrates would ask questions and believed you could learn something from anyone you had a dialogue with. Let’s talk.
