A booming private health care sector.
(Is that supposed to be good news? It really depends on which word you focus on. If the word ‘private’ stands out, then it means that the society is affluent. If however, ‘health care’ stands out, then maybe the population is aging, or is getting less healthy.)

I got this from my worship cell leader. Worth thinking about…

it doesn’t matter how long it is.
If you are doing something with your life,
it doesn’t matter how long it is.
Life does not consist of years lived,

I came to the line in Robert Ferrigno’s novel The Wake Up where the character said ‘There’s no better way to ruin the walls than from within’, and I got reminded of an illustration a DJ shared over the radio some years ago.

I empathize with couples desperate to conceive their own children. I really do, though I may not fully appreciate the agony they suffer. But to resort to surrogate means, or ‘renting a womb’ as harsher critics have it, is quite another story.
From a conservative point of view, the procedure goes against the ways of nature. […]
This quote makes me think about what I shouldn’t spend too much time thinking about.
Aerodynamically the bumblebee
Shouldn’t be able to fly
But the bumblebee doesn’t know it,
So it goes on flying anyway.
- quote Mary Kay Ash
We often hinder ourselves from venturing into new territories because we think we lack the experience, skill, time, money, contact, dah […]
I may be in a completely different league from John McCain, but I can certainly identify with his frustration with the media’s bias in his bid for that top job.
