How To Walk

As a responsible elderly human being approaching 77 years of
age just around the corner, I feel the obligation to pass on
some (wisdom) which has come by pondering what worked
and what did not work in situations  that came up through life.

                Happy family on the beach

  • Good happy families are like fudge -- Mostly sweet 
  • with a few nuts. 
  • But raising teenagers is a pain, like nailing Jell-O 
  • to a tree.
  • Car sickness is the feeling you get when the monthly 
  • car payment is due.
  • It isn't difficult to make a mountain out of a molehill: 
  • just add a little dirt.
  • Being silent is good. Others think you are listening.
  • Why is the third hand on a watch called a 
  • second hand?
  • Confucius was so smart, he said things like: to 
  • make egg roll, push it.
What does this have to do with walking?

Nothing, except the procedure.

               Baby Boy Crawling
A child notices that the adults can get around much faster as they
walk on their feet. The child forms a goal in it's mind of finding
out how to walk like them.

It is a procedure of trail and error. He or she keeps trying and
learning not to do again that which let them fall.

When they have succeeded in walking without falling, it is
committed into the brain like the hard drive in a computer.

Have you ever thought about how you walk. Like as you
start to raise your left leg and swing the lower part forward,
then lower the whole leg while swinging the lower forward
until the heel touches the floor, and on, and on. and on.

When you want to start walking, it happens without your
thinking, move right leg forward, move left leg forward, etc.
It comes out of your brain without you thinking it.

This is called Rote Memory.

                    Jesus

                    Amazing body we live in, isn't it.

Whenever I'm disappointed with something, I stop and think
about what  Maria, in my classroom told me about her sister.

                two real young girls

Her younger sister was trying out for a part in a school play.
Maria indicated that her sister had set her heart on being
in the play, but was afraid she would not be chosen.

On the day the parts were awarded, Maria and her sister
came running back to my classroom with her eyes
shinning with pride and excitement. Guess what
Mr....... she shouted, and then said those words that
will remain a lesson to me.

                 I will bet you that most won't recognize
                        this for what it was worth! 


      I was asked how old I was recently. I replied that I was
              old enough to remember the Olden Days.


                     The Olden Days.

                    Toilet paper is a luxury
                that as a child I never knew!

                  In our toilet was a Catalog
               with the pages all gone through

                     Sears amd Roebuck Catalog.

        We used the pages that crumpled nicely
          and became supple & soft to use.

Wrong Words

| words | word | word work | wrong word |

WEB SITE

Have you had an experience of a young child using the wrong word.
Maybe using the wrong word because it sounds so similar.

I remember that I was standing outside the church when I herd  a young
nephew ask another young boy if he knew how many women a man
can marry?

"Sixteen," the boy answered.

Ua, aaa said young boy. That's not right.

"Yes it is said the little boy," The preacher said, "four better,
four worse, four richer, four poorer"

Well, not harm done there, however the better I knowledge of
words, The better we can do the job.

Take for instance, when I worked the Big Heavy Equipment, a
mistake could be very costly. Here is a Cat D10 & Cat D9.

I was working on a section of the Union Pacific Railroad and
I was cutting out another road way for another set of rails.

The job entailed cutting a hill down 65 feet, 100 feet back into the
hill and a 2 to 1 slope. Five miles of the job had this solid rock.

My Mom and Dad had a Fruit ranch about 20 miles South-East
of Fresno California. My Dad’s parents had a ranch about
1 mile away, so I knew them very well.

                       Sister Janice and I hugging about 1942
My Sister Janice and I would see our grandparents very often.
Brother Ron was not born yet.

Grandpa passed away when I was about 15 years old. He was
usually very serious, but occasionally he would pull a funny.
I was always interested in hearing about his young age and
believed in everything he told me.

My grandfather was sent by his parents from Denmark at the age
of14 to live with his Aunt and Uncle here in Minden, Nebraska.
My grandfather worked in a blacksmith shop, and he used to tell
me how he had strengthen himself so he could stand the rigors of
blacksmiths.

ABOUT US

Listen Carefully!

I know that a lot of you know that I taught 6th grade for 5 years. In
the English class, I empathized the art of learning how to use
words to paint a picture in the mind of the person you are talking
to or writing.
 
I will share with you an assignment I gave them to discover the
different picture with just one word. Many times this is what
develops misunderstanding.

                         Photo of Harley
"It's time to see how clearly you can think." I said to my  class.
"Now, listen carefully, and think about what I'm saying.

"I'm thinking of a  person who has the same mother and father
 as I have.But this person is not my brother or sister. Who is it"

The kids in the class furrowed their brows, scratched their
heads and otherwise showed how hard they were thinking.
But no one came up with the right answer.

When everyone in the class had given up, I announced,

Are you a pinball?

Do you just bounce from one problem to another?
Are you bouncing from one home based business
to another? Are you bouncing from one bill to another?

           Image close up of Pin ball table.

Stop and evaluate and analyze your life. Be careful
about where you get your information. If not, you
might run into something like this!

A cold winter coming:

  During the first part of autumn, the Indians asked
 their chief if the winter was going to be cold or mild.
Not really knowing the answer, the chief replied
 that the winter was going to be very cold and that
the members of the village were to collect wood
to be prepared.
