@@@@@It isn't the upside-down talking crow they 988

@@@@@It isn't the upside-down talking crow they are afraid 680 of, nor the way the sky sometimes lenses from blue to a sunset red before going back to blue; it is the thing behind them Even with its fangs it still looks a little like one of the funny frogs Libbit used to draw, but this one is ever so much bigger, and real enough to cast a shadowReal enough to stink and shake the ground each time it jumpsThey have been frightened by all sorts of things since Daddy found the treasure, and Libbit says they dassn't come out of their room at night, or even look out their windows, but this is day, and the thing behind them is too real not to be believed, and it is gaining The next time it's Tessie who falls and Lo-Lo who pulls her up, casting a terrified glance behind her at the thing chasing themIt's surrounded by dancing bugs it sometimes licks out of the air Lo-Lo can see Tessie in one bulging, stupid eye She herself is in the other They burst onto the beach gasping and out of breath and now there's nowhere to go but the water Except maybe there is, because the boat is back 681 again, the one they have seen more and more frequently in the last few weeksLibbit says the boat isn't what it seems, but now it's a floating white dream of safety, and besides - there is no choiceThe big boy is almost at their heels It came out of the swimming pool just after they finished playing Adie's Wedding in Rampopo, the baby-house on the side lawn (today Lo-Lo got to play Adie)Sometimes Libbit can make these awful things go away by scribbling on her pad, but now Libbit is sleeping - she has had a great many troubled nights lately The big boy leaps off the path and onto the beach, spraying sand all aroundIts bulging eyes stare Its fragile white belly, so full of noisome guts, bulges The two girls, standing with their hands linked and their feet in the running boil of what Daddy calls the little surf, look at each otherThen they look at the ship, swinging at anchor with its sails furled and shiningIt looks even closer, as if it has moved in to rescue them Lo-Lo says We have to Tessie says But I can't SWIM! 682 You can dogpaddle! The big boy leapsThey can hear its guts slosh when it landsThey sound like wet garbage in a barrel of waterThe blue fades from the sky and then the sky bleeds red

@@@@@What is my wealth? Let's go back to 863

von: peny498

@@@@@What is my wealth? Let's go back to Buckminster Fuller's definitionUsing his definition, how many days forward can I survive? And let's assume a 30-day monthBy that definition, I have enough cash flow for half a month When I have achieved $2,000 a month cash flow from my assets, then I will be wealthy So I am not yet rich, but I am wealthy I now have income generated from assets each month that fully cover my monthly expensesIf I want to increase my expenses, I first must increase my cash flow from assets to maintain this level of wealthTake notice that it is at this point that I no longer am dependent on my wages I have focused on and been successful in building an asset column that has made me financially independent If I quit my job today, I would be able to cover my monthly expenses with the cash flow from my assets My next goal would be to have the excess cash flow from my assets reinvested into the asset column The more money that goes into my asset column, the more my asset column growsThe more my assets grow, the more my cash flow growsAnd as long as I keep my expenses less than the cash flow from these assets, I will grow richer, with more and more income from sources other than my physical labor As this reinvestment process continues, I am well on my way to being rich The actual definition of rich is in the eye of the beholderYou can never be too rich Just remember this simple observation: The rich buy assetsThe poor only have expensesThe middle class buys liabilities they think are assetsSo how do I start minding my own business? What is the answer? Listen to the founder of McDonald's CHAPTER FOUR Lesson Three: Mind Your Own Business In 1974, Ray Kroc, the founder of McDonald's, was asked to speak to the MBA class at the University of Texas at AustinA dear friend of mine, Keith Cunningham, was a student in that MBA classAfter a powerful and inspiring talk, the class adjourned and the students asked Ray if he would join them at their favorite hangout to have a few beers Ray graciously accept

@@@@@?We do not choose violenceWe face it when we mustAnd it's a good thing for the rest of you that some of us are strong enough for the unpleasantnessYour peace would be shattered without our workYour vocation will soon be obsolete, I think ?The error of that statement lies on the bed there ?One human girl, alone and unarmed! Yes, quite a threat to our peace The woman breathed out heavily?But where did she come from? How did she appear in the middle of Chicago, a city long since civilized, hundreds of miles from any trace of rebel activity? Did she manage it alone?? She listed the questions without seeming to seek an answer, as if she had already voiced them many times ?That's your problem, not mine,? the man said?My job is to help this soul adapt herself to her new host without unnecessary pain or traumaAnd you are here to interfere with my job Still slowly surfacing, acclimating myself to this new world of senses, I understood only now that I was the subject of the conversationI was the soul they spoke ofIt was a new connotation to the word, a word that had meant many other things to my hostOn every planet we took a different nameI suppose it was an apt descriptionThe unseen force that guides the body ?The answers to my questions matter as much as your responsibilities to the soul There was the sound of movement, and her voice was suddenly a whisper?When will she become responsive? The sedation must be about to wear offShe deserves to handle the situation however she finds most comfortableImagine the shock of her awakening?inside a rebel host injured to the point of death in the escape attempt! No one should have to endure such trauma in times of peace!? His voice rose with the increase of emotion The woman's tone was reassuring now?See how well she did with the first memory, the worst mem
