Mornin',

Glad you're here

Comparing the U.S. Presidential Campaign of 2008, with the Insurance Healthcare Reform of 2009, the same two sides bay the same way. Dis ingenuity versus Dis ingenuity supported by their own private agendae. In the middle is the President and those who share the vision of One America, Whose One is the disunion of discussion. Disinformation disturbs, disrupts debate rendering discourse abused . Moral Imperatives and Moral Aptitudes are vital to a Healthy Democracy.

What about Bonsai Trees?

Or B.F. Skinner?

Then I took a break to read.

You are reading from the book Today's Gift

Faith is the bird that feels the light when the dawn is still dark.

—Sir Rabindranath Tagore

In the darkness of early morning, the bird outside the window begins to sing. Soon the eastern sky turns pink. The bird continues singing until the first yellow rays warm its soft wings. Then it flies away, not returning to the window until the next morning.

We can learn from the small bird how to have faith. We don't need to wait for something we want before having faith we'll get it. We can begin to show our faith by celebrating the things we usually take for granted. After all, when we take something for granted, isn't that a selfish form of faith? We can start by singing a song to celebrate the new day. A day that will warm our hearts and shed light on our actions. Like the bird's faith in the sunrise, we need only to have faith that God meant each day to enrich our lives.

What faith can I celebrate right now?

The reason why

From http://greatday.com/

You know what you must do. And yet how do you get yourself to do it?

Again and again, remind yourself why. With a strong enough reason why, you will be able to do anything at any time in any circumstance.

If you're tempted to put off a task until later, remind yourself why you truly want to get it done. Put a powerful why behind it, and you'll find a way to do it now.

Real achievement demands many consistent, focused efforts spread over long periods of time. The way to keep it up is to keep it meaningful.

Give your long-term intentions the opportunity to dispel the short-term, momentary urges. With a clear, solid purpose firmly in mind, you'll stay reliably on track.

Whatever you choose to imagine can happen for you. Constantly give your goals a sincere reason why, and you'll bring them steadily to life.

-- Ralph Marston
