READING, WRITING

Read 70 seconds in SAPIENS by Yuval Noah Harari.  He says that foragers of early SAPIEN tribes/groups developed beliefs in spirits, ghosts, etc, but did not try to "convert" other groups to these beliefs.  Not at first, anyway.

Read 70 seconds in YOU ARE A WRITER by Jeff Goins.  He says I'll have to plan on writing and RE-WRITING everything I want to publish.  Plan on speding 30-60 minutes RE-WRITING for every 100 words of finished writing.  Plan on 5-25 hours RE-WRITING for every 2,500 word (average length of a feature magazine article.

Good thing I'm not doing this for the money, he adds.

Read 1+ page in A PROMISED LAND by Barack Obama.  He says his campaign was different; he felt like a rock star until he begain speaking; he realized that he was the "recipient" of 1000 different dreams, and he knew he'd likely fail at many of them; also, the Secret Service began MUCH earlier for him than for other candidates, since he'd received MANY more death threats than "normal."

My note:  Hillary got as many death threats as Barack did; maybe that was a "good thing" since the evil people had to divide their attentions between the two, up until one was nominated.

Read 1+ page in WORKING WITH ONENESS by Llewellyn Vaughan.  He describes what true love is (he says it's really freedom) on PAGE 28 - I really like what he wrote there.  He likens love to the sunlight that shines behind the clouds of emotion, self-denial, etc.  That image works for me.

Read 1+ page in THE PERSIAN BOY by Mary Renault.  DONE

Read 1+ page in AN AMERICAN FAMILY by Jon and Michael Gallaluccio   DONE

**********

Although I've taken close to 2 months off from SLLLAVERS, I decided to go back to it this morning.  I'm also going back to my 2-meal-a-day diet as of today.  

I'm also mindful of my Vertigo return - so I'm doing my Epley Maneuvers regularly, and I have an appointment at Kaiser Physical Therapy on 9/14
