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. |
| War Chest Wednesday! From a previous challenger... What is your "philosophy of life"...the idea that guides the way you live? And why have you chosen it?  I never thought I had a philosophy of life. If I do it's just living today trying not to get to involved with other peoples ideas about what my life is suppose to be like. As an adult I found myself involved with lots of community ideas. I was president of the PTA one year, took on the cub scout leader responsibility, worked with church youth groups, lead an adult prayer group and some other interesting projects over the years. As I aged, I was amazed at how alike peoples lives were becoming. If you stepped one way off someone else's views you bumped right into community thought. In order to have any individuality you pretty much have to find out who you are, and what you really believe. So, I guess one day at a time is good. I seem to feel time flying by fast as well. So, mindfulness ideas of living in the moment are very calming. After reading "How to Teach Relativity to Your Dog" I've been wondering if you live close to your own path if time slows down to your pace? |
