I spent today working from home and studying. I do need a break from calling, maybe a nap before I start calling again. I’ve gotta figure out when I’m going to do my poetry. … Read entire article »

The Diary 12-27-09

There is much work to do. Now that I’m settled, I have much house work added to my list of things to do. To show my appreciation to my friend, I made sure the snow was shovelled, dishes and kitchen was cleaned from the Christmas dinner she labored to cook for her guests, and that the garbage remains emptied at all times. I spent two hours doing these things which ate into my twenty-four hours I had to divide up among other chores. As I look ahead of the new year, I think every Sunday will be used to reflect on the previous week and see how I can improve on the next week. I’ve been looking at how much time I actually practice music, read, study algebra, write, improve my vocabulary, blog, … Read entire article »

ATT 208 South Akard Street Dallas, Texas 75202-4206 December 21st, 2009 Dear Mr. Ralph de la Vega   I’ve been an ATT customer all my life. I’m addressing you in this open letter format as a way for my voice to be heard.

The Diary 12-16-09

How ironic it is that today I pick out of my personal library of books “The Richest Man in Babylon” to start my trek on studying wealth. I just finished the first chapter and the character Bansir seemed just as I. In the first chapter, the author, George S. Clason, paints a picture of Bansir standing against a wall trying to figure out why he is still poor. I, too was at that same place recently. And just like at the end of the chapter, Kobbi, his long time childhood friend makes an enlightening statement to Bansir as to why they both have remained poor, as they have not studied how to be wealthy. He goes on to say that Bansir, focused and labored on how to become a successful chariot builder and he had studied to … Read entire article »
