One bonus to all the other benefits to having dogs is that when someone comes to the door, they bark. and bark. and bark. The person at the door will hear them almost as clearly as I do. If I don’t answer, they won’t assume it’s because I didn’t hear them knock and then knock another time or two. Time and frustration saved across the board! Win win!

I have come to realize that most people have more time than they think they do, they simply piss it away on stupid shit that doesn’t really matter.

Who are the biggest influences in your life?
Hmmmm….
Direct day to day influence on my actions? Myself, my dogs, my husband, my friends, my boss. My bank account – because who doesn’t want to take a private jet to a weekend getaway anywhere they want??
Influence on how I choose to live my life? That’s a story…. But, the short list is: my parents, my grandmother, the idea of (i don’t remember her) my paternal grandmother, and the simple, overwhelming knowledge that there is more to life. Every thing, every person, every situation or every place – there is more to each of them than we will ever know. Our knowledge of the truth of existence is minuscule, at best.

“Which is more powerful – chaos or order?
And either way, explain why existence always maintains or increases in entropy (disorder) per the second law of thermodynamics?”
Thinking about this, I am reminded of a book I read while I was in high school (but not for a class), The Physics of God. For the record, I had almost zero understanding of the equations in the reference section, but it was a good read regardless. Anyway, this book talks about the author’s theory of the universe exploding, and then, like a ball reaching the peak of its vertical flight, comes crashing back down (or in. as the case may be).
This got me thinking. Everything in the universe seems to be some sort of cycle. Planetary evolutions. Seasons. Solar flares. Women’s bodies. Why not the existecnce of the universe?
Thought – Chaos – the feminine – is responsible for life. Perhaps the universe drives itself to more disordered states to get closer to the point that it can be reborn…?
Back to the question at hand – which is more powerful? Well…. chaos, if intense enough, can destroy anything that order has brought to bear. Score 1 for chaos. Order perpetuates itself in a way that chaos cannot. It is self-sustaining in many cases. Score 1 for order. But in either case, it gets to a point that one needs the other. With order obliterated, there is nothing to turn chaotic. If everything is in order, there is nothing left to do….
I think, and have for most of my life, that balance is key.
Neither is more powerful because their power is drawn from the destruction of their opposite. They need each other in order to exist.

Budgeting time is very similar to budgeting money, but with the major difference that time has an expiration. You don’t get to keep for tomorrow the time you may have saved today.

That’s why every moment of your life should be an investment in something better.

Do they have stunt horses who take the place of regular horses in dangerous movie scenes? If not, how to we make this a thing?
