A Journal to impart knowledge and facts

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.

Well said! "We can not always tell if what we hear or read is accurate."

In response to "What is resolved?"

Last year, I decided to skip making resolutions. Since my resolution was the perennial favorite "lose weight," I decided to simply do it. When I saw the doctor in September, she said I lost fourteen pounds in a year. So, who needs resolutions? Don't make yourself promises—just live and move forward.

In response to "Soundwaves"

My physical for work involved a hearing test every year. Even inside a sound proof booth, I could still hear the phone ringing at the front desk, even the toilet flushing. It used to frustrate him that my hearing was so acute. I still have amazing hearing.

I think it would be cool to be identified by sound waves.

In response to "remember this?"

I'll join you on the luge, it looks like it would be so much fun.

I remember loose piles of hay and using a pitchfork to feed the cows. I didn't like stacking the square bales. The round ones look difficult to move to me.

In response to "chocolate tea?"

In Thailand, coffee is often served with tea or hot water.

I remember chewing on stems from my child... haven't thought about that in a while!

In response to "Brrr!"

My water used to freeze quite often when I lived in Maine. I used to curl up with a book while the wood stove did its thing warming us up and thawing the water lines.

Wild about the red squirrel. I hope it survives the blizzard.

In response to "Always Move Forward"

The first step is usually the hardest but after that I find I can do more than I originally thought.

Revelation for today

What are you reading? Would you recommend it? Why or why not?

HI.
Joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls. By Mother Teresa (founder of missionaries of Charity.)

I'm presently reading, 101 answers to questions about the book of Revelation. By Mark Hitchcock.

I'm up to part 4 about 30% read. I like it because the layout of information is specific to each topic. It relates Revelation to the apostle John. The book explains church history about the time the book was written.There is some relevant history about each of the 7 churches.

I borrowed the book from our local library online. Then I looked it up in books for sale on Amazon and found out it could not be purchased there yet, although, it is listed by individuals who sell on Amazon.

Even though I'm not far into the book I would recommend it. Because it reveals church history relevant to the time it was written. Also, because it is very precise and can quote other people who have studied Revelation in-depth.

There is an in-depth look at the symbols used within the book. There are dates about when the churches mentioned in Revelation were active. Hitchcock mentions different views from other authors about questions listed in his book.

In all, so far as I have read, it seems like a well thought out and organized questioning of the entire message formed in the Revelation.

Yay! Spring is showing up more each day.
