Have you noticed that we are almost constantly trying to figure out, or put together something?Idiotically enough, the better we think we’ve become the more this occurs!We all know for example how other people should drive. Or how they should speak – perhaps even the exact words they should...
How we deal with what we know is the difference between humility and arrogance.The story of our progress is one of being stronger than our adversaries.Other animals have remained, as creation first discovered them, whilst man evolved through learning to this current sophistication.Science has been...
The largest precursor of failure lies in this thought: “Blind Faith.” It is the curse of mankind.Man is a rational being and in the absence of reason he is simply unable to employ faith.If we really could operate with blind faith, we would be planting stones and watering these and waiting for a...

We were coerced, were we not, into leaving our mothers womb. We wept. We fought. We struggled to remain. We were coerced into leaving our mothers teat. (For some of us, first day at school was a nightmare.) Puberty. Somehow, we find it so hard to believe that we are to change to become who we are...
