See if you can outsmart your foot, bet you can’t. 1) While sitting at your desk, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles. 2) Now, while doing this, draw the number “6” in the air with your right hand. 3) Your foot will change direction. I told you so. And, there’s nothing you can do about it! Go ahead: KEEP TRYING ALL YOU WANT. Have a great day.

Next fall when you see geese heading south for the winter flying along in a “V” formation, you might be interested in knowing what science has discovered about why they fly that way. It has been learned that as each bird flaps its wings, it creates an uplift for the bird immediately following. By flying in a “V” formation, the whole flock adds at least 71% greater flying range than if each bird flew on its own. People who share common direction and sense of community can get where they are going quicker and easier, because they are traveling on the thrust of one another.

When a goose falls out of formation, it suddenly feels the draft and resistance of trying to go it alone, and quickly gets into formation to take advantage of the lifting power of the bird immediately in front. If we have as much sense as a goose, we will stay in formation with those who are headed the same way we are going.

When the lead goose gets tired, he rotates back in the wing and another goose flies point. It pays to take turn doing hard jobs.

The geese honk from behind to encourage those up front to keep up their speed. An encouraging word goes a long way.

Finally, when a goose gets sick, or is wounded by a gun shot and falls out, two geese fall out of formation and follow him until he is either able to fly or until he is dead, then they launch out on their own or with another formation to catch up with the group. If we have the sense of a goose, we will stand by each other like that.

Well almost March and sure lookin’ forward to spring.  Last night though the temperatures got down to minus 15 old scale.  So yep, had to keep the old wood furnace stoked up around three times through the night. I don’t mind though as when one gets a wee bit older seems he or she is up through the night anyways.  Sunshine here and enjoying a tea, then take the day as it comes. Pretty rough life huh?

Inflation & deflation means that folks will no longer be playing the possession game and using their possessions as weapons against each other. Once they stop defining themselves by their possessions, they will be free to define themselves by their ideas, values and beliefs. When they no longer need to impress each other by what they own, they then can be impressive by who they are and what they can do. Families and communities may come together again instead of each person sitting alone as a consumer of the latest in electronic gadgetry. Conversation may become the norm again with more things springing up for the open discussion of ideas and debate.  If this happens, intellect and creativity will flourish.  So you see I kind of think that everything happens for a reason.  So make some changes in your life and move on.  Simple as that.  Talk Soon
