THINK ON THIS 1
Sometimes, it seems the world is against you; it seems friends, family, and all others, have deserted you. No one seems to care; to understand. You may want to run away and hide. Some even, tragically, commit suicide. Yet, always remind yourself success or failure is the extension of your faith and...

STRANGE!!
Without a suit, some people conclude one's a brute; don a suit, most people assume one's astute. It is rather strange that the outer garb should prescribe one's intellectual range. Stay well; walk good my friend. Copyright©2007 LST's INFOS and QUIPS.

OBLIGATION TO A FRIEND
It is infinitely more despicable to say yes to a friend when your response should be no than it is to someone distant or just an acquaintance. A friend expects honesty at all times and one should not hesitate to respond honestly. Indeed, if one cannot accept an honest response, he, or she, is not,...

THE CATEGORICAL IMPERATIVE
Immanuel Kant, that respected 18th century philosopher, in his Alternative Formulae for his Categorical Imperative advises, " Act in such a way that you treat humanity, whether in your own person or in the person of another, always at the same time as an end and never simply as a means." What a...

MASTER OF HIS FATE?
Somewhere someone wrote that " Man is master of his fate." In my view, that is not true. How do I control what happens to me when I am caught in a rainstorm far distant from an occupied enclave?

AN EXPERIENCE
