    I find interesting that "Well done is better than well said" does not only talk about the need to take action but also says a lot about human nature. Talking about doing things or even promising to do them is within everyone's reach. Following through on those words requires effort and (hard) work. At the end of the day talk is cheap. Results speak for themselves.

      That IS the definition of religion, according to the Bible that was trying to contrast FAITH from WORKS, making fun of those being confronted by those in need of clothing or food, ACKNOWLEDGING the need, and even saying, GO FORTH WARMED AND FED, but not providing the wherewithal to put those words into action. In other words the socialist/communist/Democrat/RINO cabal have been establishing religion in the form of welfare and entitlements and even public education when you consider Jefferson and the founders understood education was a practice to develop the self government skills to allow governments such as us to function without draconian police or military to control the people. I a Baptist Christian understanding the BIBLE'S definition the founders sought counsel from (the only definition of religion in the entire Bible) believe we nee to divest government from ALL RELIGION, but prayers, confessions professions what we publish and engrave upon wood, stone, or metal or ANYTHING WE SAY about what we believe is NOT RELIGION according to the Bible, but protected speech WE THE PEOPLE are allowed to practice in all venues and government NOT DOING OUR RELIGION which we have to do on our own dime.

      BRIFFAULT’S LAW:
      The female, not the male, determines all the conditions of the animal family. Where the female can derive no benefit from association with the male, no such association takes place.
      There are a few corollaries I would add:
      1. Past benefit provided by the male does not provide for continued or future association.
      2. Any agreement where the male provides a current benefit in return for a promise of future association is null and void as soon as the male has provided the benefit (see corollary 1).
      3. A promise of future benefit has limited influence on current/future association, with the influence inversely proportionate to the length of time until the benefit will be given and directly proportionate to the degree to which the female trusts the male.

    Most of these are wise and witty. Beyond this in their collective entirety but a few are just like the stuff I blathered on about when I was a drunkard. A ponderous drunkard, but deluded none the less. I wish I'd written it down, but I would have thrown it away since so now, I can pick and choose who shall be doing the blathering for me. Ben Franklin is probably the most worthy of candidates. Thank you.

    I get up at 6 a.m. and I am done around 10 p.m. ....almost the same schedule as Ben...at 72, I feel if I am not accomplishing work in reno projects, gardening, wood working, writing journals or playing sports... I have wasted a day. Fill your wide awake hours and one will never have a problem sleeping at the end of the day...you had a fullfilling day and that is what your goal is and you have accomplished so much...it is now 10 p.m.......good night and you will sleep tight...😴

    Quite a guy, was our old Ben: he was able to channel Mark Twain and Oscar Wilde, predicted twenty-first century colloquialisms, and even used catch phrases familiar to us such as “question authority.” And while people most assuredly did “have sex” in the eighteenth century, that was not the set of words they used to describe the experience!

    At 0:20, the pause between "ere" and "long" is inappropriate. The phrase is "ere long", no pause.
    At 4:46, the word on the screen is passion, but the word spoken is possession.

    • @johnalbright149
      @johnalbright149 Год назад +1
