to match your nature 

with Nature. "

with all the life it supports. "

obstacle. "

" What delights us 

in visible beauty

 is the invisible. "

Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach 

" Friendship is 

unnecessary,

 like philosophy, like art... 

It has no survival value;

 rather it is one of those 

things

 that give value to 

survival. "

  
 C S Lewis

" I consider myself 

an outsider 

who belongs everywhere

 and nowhere... 

Being a human being

 is what truly counts. 

That's where you'll find me.”

Investment & 'Prepping' Advice

A  L  O  H  A !

" Happiness

Always Looks Small

When You Hold It

 In Your Hand -

- But Let It Go,

And You Learn

At Once How

B I G

And How

PRECIOUS

It Is. "

Maxim  Gorky

" Change Happens

By Listening,

And then Starting

A Dialogue

With The People

Who Are Doing Something

You Don't Believe

Is Right. "

Jane  Goodall,

Primate Intelligence Researcher

I bought General Electric
stock in '08
when there was
"Blood on the streets"
[ that's a link ]
financially.

I figured that
if GE stayed under
$10

We had bigger problems

         than a stagnant stock.

 "General Electric Company 

NYSE: GE-
$8.75  "
2008

    

" General Electric Company

NYSE: GE -  

Mar 15 4:00pm ET 2013

$23.44 "

 

I still hold my shares

and get a small

dividend.

This is an investment,

not a trade.

Someday,

when I need the 

cash value,

I will be in a 

low tax bracket

 

(No, not a multi-billionaire

paying NO taxes - Ha Ha

on the rest of us) 

 

That is the extent

of my investment

knowledge

except to say

that the average person

is better off

investing in something

they can understand.

IF YOU ARE APPROACHED

WITH A GREAT INVESTMENT

WALK AWAY.

 

99% of the time

you have to spot

your own! 

 

Simply Live

 happily

on less than your 

income.

 

Enjoy saving,

MORE than acquiring

more stuff.

 

Do something you 

enjoy, or can stand,

to make a living.

 

You Will Be Financially

SECURE.

(Americans:

you need health

insurance.

In USA

  Medical bills 

cause 62 percent 

of bankruptcies! )

 

If you savor

what is

right before you:

Family / Friends,

health,

food,

weather,

smells,

sights, pets,

events-

you are rich.

  

 

 An Earnest

Recommendation:

DON'T Commute

WITH the creeping Herd!

No matter HOW nice

the yard, or whatever

lures you miles

from work. 

 

Live Against

the flow of 

Rush Hour Traffic.

You'll Thank Me!

 

And if you can:

Walk to Work!

YOUr health,

outlook,

and bank account

will improve! 

 

So when the economy

is teetering

don't sell along 

with everyone else

who is panicking

(again with the herd) 

trying to SELL

for whatever 

they can get.

 

Buy something 

inherently valuable

and it will come back.

 

 

 

 

EMERGENCIES

It never hurts

to be ready for

natural/weather

 'disasters.' 

In fact it is simple,

smart, and

could save lives 

dear to you.

 

At worst

your family

will tease you.

I can take it

for their safety.  

 

  

You don't need 

a bunker.

 

EXAMPLE:

 1 bag of pet food

lasts WEEKS.

 

When I open a new

bag.

I buy a NEW

unopened bag

(not 600).

 

Similar for our

human supplies.  

 

Don't ever rush

to the shops

in a monsoon

for a 'basic'

especially for the 

animals, children,

and elders!

 

So there you go.

Loving advice

because YOU

are precious to me.

 

Now go spread

the Aloha!

Other Fools

A  L  O  H  A !

" Others were fools in the morning
Or in the evening 

or on Saturdays 

" Or odd days 

like Friday the Thirteenth
But me --

 I was a fool

 every day in the week

" And when asleep 

I was the sleeping fool.
(So I dreamed.) "

Carl Sandburg,

  Dreaming Fool 

 " It is well to remember

 that the entire universe,

 with one trifling exception,

 is composed of 

others. "
