READING, WRITING

Read for 60 seconds in SAPIENS by Yuval Noah Harari.  He says that at some time, humans stopped thinking like humans, and started thinking like bookkeepers and accountants, so that they could keep things organized and retrieve data as needed.

Also "at some time" humans in Arabia invaded India, and found that they had developed a numerical system of base 10 (0-9 symbols); the Arabs adopted it and now take credit for being the "first mathematical system."  Soon, symbols for mathematical calculations were added, forming the basis for our mathematical system today.

******************

I am SOOOOOOOOOOO UPSET that Joe did not get the job he interviewed for.  He is being "strong" but I know it "stings" him more than he's letting on.  I wish some day things would turn for him - things that could allow him to enjoy his life more completely.

And for me, too.  I wish today were the day David calls.  But probably not.

(*sigh*)  I was riding so high this morning, and now I'm already "shot down."

"When will I be loved?"  same feeling, but right now, it's more "When will I be rich?"

*sigh*

Waiting for the phone to ring.  Again.  Still.

*sigh*
