'From my church-step bed I generated 15,000 views of my youtube last night..' SL (more)
The sum total of donations I've received this last month is $10, that I recall. I've not done the math, but I'll guess I received $10 per minute when I worked for over-privilege.
I do a lot with what I'm given. Sitting on my granite bed in the 40 degree cold, as folks benign and threatening walked past, I watched, downloaded, parsed, and uploaded Pr. Obama's SOTU last night in 7 segments, and as of now about 15,000 viewings across all 7 segments.
I wonder how many, with infinitely more material resources than I, used them to similar impact during the same time.
We are really in trouble. Affloholic Zombie Addicts.

SL here. This will seem harsh, but I'm sure it is not -
I continue to fail those brought the closest to me. I'm sorry. What I'm referring to is my so-far, uncontrolled tendency to 'broadcast,' to SHOUT those revelations that are Given to me (emails, email, emails....) Over and over through the last decade I've struggled with this failing, made a little progress, but I continue to revert, too much. I'm sorry.
My point is, I'll continue to try, and probably make some progress.
The way YOU may experience that progress is by the withdrawal of my responsiveness to you. If this occurs, it will be as an intended Service to you, as your Brother, my Duty, the Duty of Love.
Here's the bottom line - What I'm CERTAIN I'm called to do is to share all that I'm Given at the blog below. Any of you that choose to not subscribe, or to not follow, consume the Daily Summary:
A. Will always be my brother or sister, that is, I will be yours!
B. But I promise to reduce my tendency to enable your Neglect, by withdrawing my responsiveness to you.
As Good (God) is my witness there is zero veiled in this note to you. NO, I do not Judge that you Should follow along. But I must Respect that if you do not, that is a significant indication I have little to offer You, and respect that, and if it is a poor decision on your part, to not enable you by my over-compensation, that has been my failing too, too, too, too... often.
But no, neither can I promise you that I'll not continue to fail you in this too often. But I know I'll try harder.
