I succeeded to work out both problems and have been extremely well-rested
on every Sunday since.
Man hears train coming; sees he can beat it and gets killed by the
train on the second track coming from the other direction.
Many a successful man will happily boast of not being held back by
lack of education.
Neighbor kid started young mowing lawns. In a few months saw him
riding down the street on a small mower. Now he's full grown; has
many trucks, trailers, boat, mountain bike, rv, more than three
homes, land with cattle, all from mowing. His two x-wives liked his
toys but not his independence.
When I was young, deacon lectured me on the wisdom of standing on
the solid rock of Peter and not sinking in the shifting sands of
philosophy. I didn't know what philosophy was. Unintentionally
I spent most of my life traversing shifting sands of one sort
or another. Bruised and beaten but I can still smile thinking
back to that time.
Leaned a new word last week (already forgot it but will know it
if I see it again.) That very same day as I revisited some documents
I found that word in several of them. Until aware much of
one's surrounding is oblivious at the conscious level. Perhaps
that gives rise to the abundance of zombie movies.
Higher education is good but doesn't translate into street smarts on
its own. Many things have to be learned the hard way. One can read
all the advice on marriage but until the plunge is taken, for better
or worse, KNOW wont be really known (some people think they know 'KNOW
in the biblical sense', but that just may be the first train.)
