READING, WRITING

Read for 70 seconds in SAPIENS by Yuval Noah Harari.  He says that scurvy plagued all sailors & ships until 1747, when a British physician, James Lind, did experiments with various foods & sailors & ships.  He found that those sailors who ate citrus fruit recovered from scurvy, while others did not.  His findings convinced James Cook that Lind's diet was the cure, and so he adopted it for all his future voyages.  This cure of scurvy is credited with the successful British colonization of much of the South Pacific Islands, including Australia.

Read for 70 seconds in A PROMISED LAND by Barack Obama.  He recalls the blessing of having Marian, his mother-in-law, living with them in the WH.  She reminded the family of where they came from, and she never complained.

Read for 70 seconds in WORKING WITH ONENESS by Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee.  He says the goal is oneness.  The friends of God facilitate the unification of all beings.  The more we participate, the more knowledge is given.  We must facilitate it, or it will dry up and fade away.

Read for 70 seconds in THE RIGHTEOUS MIND by Jonathan Haidt.  He says he has been guilty of intuitive reactions to criticism from his wife, and that is the same as his subjects (in his studies) being hypnotized into thinking that a certain person who does good things is actually bad in some way.  The reaction was triggered by a word they'd been hypnotized into associating with corrupt morals.

Read for 70 seconds in MAN'S SEARCH FOR MEANING by Viktor Frankl.  He remembers the horror of being awakened at early dark hours from exhausted sleep, and trying to fit swollen feet into wet shoes; one, he recalls, cried because his feet would no longer fit into his shoes, and he'd have to go barefoot that day, in the snow.

I'm having a hard time focusing on anything that the prisoners endured, and so I shut out the memory of what I've read.  It's so far from real for me.  And yet, I wonder why I'm reading this now, and if it might portend some immediate future for Americans living in this ghastly Trump era.  BARF!!!!!!

Read for 1 page+ in ULYSSES by James Joyce
