  • A Choice of Life or Death

    I ponder 2 Nephi 2 again today. “27 Wherefore, men are free according to the flesh; and all things are given them which are expedient unto man. And they are free to choose liberty and eternal life, through the great Mediator of all men, or to choose captivity and death, according to the captivity and…

  • Intentional Uncertainty

    List 10 things you know to be absolutely certain. Objective truth exists. Human beings are remarkably bad at finding it. Even worse at holding onto it once found. And worse still at expressing it to another human being also searching for objective truth.

  • The Grand Poobah

    Are you seeking security or adventure? Between security and adventure I would choose security. But what I really want is attention and after that abundance. I would certainly like to be relatively secure that I have a captivated audience. I would also like to be secure in the wealth I earn. But change is the…

  • Holidays with the Family

    If you could host a dinner and anyone you invite was sure to come, who would you invite? This question has me thinking about the dining rooms and picnics I attended as a child. The guests were my extended family. It was usually one party for my mother’s side of the family and a smaller…

  • Facebook Jail

    I was banned from Facebook for only twelve hours. I have a theory as to why since they didn’t tell me what triggered either decision. I have several strikes for inciting violence according to Facebook Community Standards. I made a post a couple of years ago comparing the January 6th Republican protests to the Wisconsin…

  • Facebook Ban

    At approximately 12;30 I received a ban for Facebook. They did not tell me why. They will review the ban once before it becomes permanent. I might have just made my last controversial post on the platform and I don’t even know which one it was. I feel like I’m coming to the end of…

  • With Age Comes Wisdom

    What do you think gets better with age? If you use your brain your whole life you will use it better in your old age than you did in your youth. There are exceptions of course but the reason old men and women are forced to retire is that we become more dangerous as the…

  • Not Enough Good Sleep

    What time do you go to bed and wake up currently? I’ve been sleeping from about 2am to 10am sometimes, but any given day is up in the air. I get insomnia regularly and sometimes when I can’t sleep for a long time my body makes up for it with a big crash. That happened…
