Beer with Jesus

Apple Music album song list
Last song…

What would you ask Jesus if you could have a sit down with him?

Thomas Rhett

Can’t believe the first time hearing this song was yesterday.

Stuff and more stuff

January 13, 2017…posted this on FB…

Several motivating factors have me cleaning out my (home-work) office closet, garage, and attic.

Finding this question helpful in what i keep or shed.

If i was downsizing and moving into a MUCH smaller place, would i take this with me?

Context:

Several times each year, we spend a few days (each visit) living with my 94-year old Mother-In-Law in her one bedroom Senior Living Efficiency apartment.

i look at her kitchen, bathroom, and two closets…her life is stripped down and simplified.

Then we walk next door to my 91-year old Father in Law’s 24-hour Nursing home room he shares with another resident. These two men literally only own the few articles of clothing they’re wearing and what’s on a few hangers in their closet.

And just yesterday, trying to find a leaking pipe, i went up in the attic….

It overwhelmed me.

Also, Cheryl and i, had a collection of old electronic devices that are dinosaurs now: cameras, movie projectors, mobile phones, etc – some pretty cool “stuff”.

My theory is this, before Google, having a real-life relic was considered a treasure because if your Grandparents didn’t have it to show you, you’d have to go to a museum.

Now, you can reach in your pocket and ask Siri to show you.

Last week i asked Chapin if he had any interest in any of the old electronics.

He didn’t.

Now it’s gone.

What i thought was so important, isn’t.

An iPhone replaces all of it.

And it fits in my pocket.

Before Henry Ford came along, folks were dreaming of a faster horse.

TRON Lightcycle Power Run

May 2022. Bicycled over to MK to have a look.

TRON Lightcycle Power Run may or may not be operational by the time this post publishes. As of May 2022, the target is late 2022 or early 2023.

Think back to May of 2022.

As we close the year today, are you where you wanted to be by the start of 2023?

Saying goodbye to the East side, after seven consecutive weeks.

Dear CPO: Chief Priorities Officer,

Thank you for your lifetime of continuous home improvement. We appreciate your vision, determination, and enthusiasm to live with prioritized priorities.

.compound .differently

clouds and mountains from a jet
Coming in for a landing.

What does .compound .differently mean?

The magic of doubling.

Assume a wise financial investment earns 10% average interest over time.

At 10% average annual interest, your investment – in this example, money – doubles every seven years.

Now make the mental leap in your thinking to move from money to physical wellbeing habits, your spiritual emotional habits, your career leadership habits, your home’s prioritized-priorities habits, and finally, your mental attitudinal habits.

Staggering what consistency and time yield.
