DAILY THROW AWAYS

REMEMBER EACH TUESDAY a continuing addition to my novel “RUST ON MY SOUL” will be added until the entire novel has appeared. (Published by Bridge Press, 1985) (Distributed Internationally) This serialization began Tuesday April 13, 2010.

Sometime, somewhere in the long ago, someone took one look at an egg, tasted its shell, examined its texture and hardness and said to themselves, “This is worthless,” and threw it away.

It was, indeed, many, many moons ago, but I have no doubt it happened.

People with faulty observations and faulty conclusions throw away good and gracious things all the time.

Once upon a time, someone picked up a watermelon and ran their tongue along its greenness.

It did not pass a multitude of tests; too heavy, the skin – even the mellow, yellow underside, too thick and evil tasting. So it obviously it was of no use and they threw it away.

People with faulty observations and faulty conclusions throw away good and gracious things all the time.

Who are you?

During your days on this earth you are what you keep and what you throw away. You are the product of your decisions; good, bad, indifferent and sometimes, like some decisions I have made, just plain stupid.

But you are also what people think you are, and people with faulty observations and faulty conclusions throw away good and gracious things all the time.

Yogi Berra in one of his famous Yogi-isms once said “You can see a lot by observing.”

And that is definitely part of the problem.

Many see things, but don’t take the time to really observe, to study, to learn, to apply insight on top of plain sight. And when we don’t dig deep enough, refuse to really try to see who a person is so we can better understand them, then we rob them and we rob ourselves.

And it then becomes little wonder that we come up with coo-coo, cock-eyed notions followed by coo-coo, cock-eyed lives.

Who are you? You are not only how much you try to understand yourself. You are also how much you try to understand others.
