I am a new comer to the field of expressing oppenions and observations as advice. I've spent the last 20 years, or so in more reflective, near hermit - like endevors.
I don't have much to say about myself. I am a laborer by occupation, a linguist by education, and a philosopher by personality. I had a very active, and progressive young adulthood. I've been an ambulance crew chief, a poliece officer, a Marine Seargent, a diplomat, a Naval Air Crewman, a translator, a management trainer, an international Rugby star, an aspiring theologian, a cabbage, and a king. I've been a lot of places, done a lot of things, met a lot of people, and eaten a lot of food.
The abridged version from all of this and my motivation for reaching out to you is that I've learned something. What I've learned is that you are spectacular, a very special, and dynamic organism. I'm not sure if anything I say to you will help you in your business, or draw mass fortunes to your porch. What I would like to convey to you is that you are a captain cast off on an adventurous voyage, and you tell the vessel where to go.

Finding Your Why
We have a new year coming at us, and it will be here shortly. Think of all the possibilities. Think of all the good things waiting for you. Think of all the things you’re going to accomplish over the next twelve months. I’m sure you have a list of resolutions already prepared.

Wrestling the Muse
I took a writing course once. It wasn’t very expensive. It was a distance learning course, mostly conducted over the internet. One of the features of the course was periodic on-line chat sessions with the instructor. For all the course cost, the instructor had to have been dedicated to producing writers … she couldn’t have been earning much for her efforts. During one of the chat sessions, the subject of writers block was breached. “I keep getting writers block.” one of the students chatted, “What can I do about it.”

Good Things Come
I’m sure we’ve all heard the adage, ‘Good things come to those who wait.’ This is a truism. Good things do come to those who wait. However, it is only part of the ‘Good Things’ recipe. There is more to eating that blueberry pie than sitting around waiting for the oven timer to sound. Waiting does not of, and by its self bring a desired result into fruition. Following is what I’ve learned over the past half century regarding the subject: · Good things come to those who wait. · Good things come to those who persist. · Good things come to those who prepare.

Birds of a Feather
“Birds of a feather flock together.” This old adage has a lot of truth in it. You are an average of the 5 to 10 people with whom you associate the most. Your bank accounts are about the same. Your homes look a lot alike. You use the same words. Your dreams and aspirations run parallel to each other. I do not advocate snobbery in any way, shape, nor form … it’s unwise to judge a book by its cover. However, we should choose our friends wisely.

Forgiveness
One day Jesus was out there giving a lecture. He was teaching a revolutionary idea. He was teaching that it is better to simply forgive the torts and felonies aimed in our direction than it is to not. Somebody out in the audience perked up and said, “But, what if your brother hits you in the head with a wiffle bat?” “Forgive him.” Jesus responded. “OK,” the same guy out in the audience continued, “what if he hits you seven times with a wiffle bat … in the same day.”

Sugar Pills
I remember watching an old Western on TV a long time ago. The setting was a dusty, ramshackle town out in the middle of no where. Citizens of this town did their best to carve a society out of their situation. The main character, of course, was a dedicated Sheriff, and his side kick deputy. There were regular characters breezing in and out, such as Doc, and Banker, and Bartender, and two ranchers whom always seemed to be fighting over water rights.

Resolutions
We’re coming up on the New Year fast and furious right about now. This is a time people project their thoughts and aspirations into the coming year. New Years resolutions have been a fad for so long they are now a tradition. Sadly, failed New Years resolutions are epidemic, to the point of being a cliché.

A Modern Interpretation of The Lords Prayer
I grew up with The Lords Prayer. I’ll attach a very long caveat to that statement. I was borne, and raised in a Jehovahs Witness household. It was kosher to read The Lords Prayer in passing, as part of the Bible in its entirety. However, to pray The Lords Prayer, or to contemplate the depth of its message, was expressly forbidden … idolatry, and all that.

Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Gerald Hentho
I've always known that humans are a functionary, and organ of the Cosmos. Carl Sagan described this function as a means for the Cosmos to gaze back on its self. Humans are an organ for the Cosmos to examine its self. I tend to believe this hypothesis.
I also tend to believe that the Cosmos will bend over backwards to reward you with whatever it thinks you want. However, the Cosmos ignores whims, passing desires, and flights of fancy. Brian Tracy sums it up by professing that you are what you think about, most of the time.
Guard your thoughts. Be vigilant. Guide your thoughts toward that table you want to sit. The Great Buddha, Prince Siddhartha Gautama, left us with a holistic approach to this endeavor, in the guise of The Nobel Eight Fold Path…
