no offer

For those of you who don't already know, the offer on the house fell through. I would tell you why, but it is quite boring actually.

I have to say that it isn't because of our Realtor. I have never had a Realtor before, so I can't compare, but I think that she is doing an amazing job. Her name is Barbara Massone (view LinkedIn Profile). She just moved to the Upstate from Boston. She is still fairly new to the area, but she has already learned her way around and is working really hard to sell our house. In fact, it was her persistence that persuaded me to use her as our Realtor.

Anyway, we just had 4 more showings last week... so, for you that pray, please pray that someone comes along that loves our house and wants to buy it!

Later!

    I'll add your home to our house selling prayers. :)

    Our house has been on the market for three months without a single offer. Tomorrow we're switching real estate agents and hoping for some great results.

    I appreciate it Rodney. I will be praying for you as well.

    I am beginning to get a better appreciation for people who are trying to sell their houses! I have heard those stories before, but I never really got it. I am starting to get it now...

The Seed and The Soil of Education (New Learning Project Part 1)

(This is my entry for the first part of my project for my New Learning course that I am taking.) Introduction Corn Fields in Illinois I have lived the majority of my life in the Midwest: mid-state Illinois to be specific. Where I live, farming is everywhere. My grandparents and great-grandparents on both sides of my family were farmers. My dad grew up on a farm and owned farmland, well into my own adulthood. But, even if it wasn’t in the family, I still would have been surrounded by farming. You can’t go more than a mile outside of my city’s limits without encountering miles and miles of fields. Most of our highways, and even interstates, are located between acres of farmland.

This too shall pass...

Gam zeh ya'avor (Hebrew) "This Too Shall Pass" Welcome!  According to Google Analytics, this is by far the most visited post that I have ever written.  If someone comes here from a search engine, most of the time they are looking for " this too shall pass quote " or simply " this too shall pass " on Google or one of the other search engines. I am sure that most of the time visitors are looking for the originations of this quote, but I have to wonder, why is this quote on people's minds? Why are they pondering the passing of events?   Here is my thought: It is probably because most of us have realized that the adult life is much harder than we ever imagined it to be. There is more pain and more sorrow than we had ever imagined as children, but we have learned that time keeps ticking. And as time continues to flow things pass. In fact, even the really big things and the really hard things will still pass. If you are here because you are thinking ...

The Minnesota Crime Commission wrote:

Every baby starts life as a little savage. He is completely selfish and self-centered. He wants what he wants when he wants it: his bottle, his mother's attention, his playmate's toys, his uncle's watch, or whatever. Deny him these and he seethes with rage and aggressiveness which would be murderous were he not so helpless. He's dirty, he has no morals, no knowledge, no developed skills. This means that all children, not just certain children but all children, are born delinquent. If permitted to continue in their self-centered world of infancy, given free reign to their impulsive actions to satisfy each want, every child would grow up a criminal, a thief, a killer, a rapist.
