Youlet her almosthack her ownhand off?” His fingers flexed around the top of my arm with his inflections The anger didn't belong with the glow“No, Ian, it wasn't like that,” I said “Of course it was your idea,” Ian growled You have nolimits when it comes to these twoBut Jared shouldn't have let you –” “What other way was there, Ian?” Jared argued“Did you have a better plan? Do you think she'd be happier if she was unhurt but Jamie was gone?” I flinched at the hideous thought Ian's voice was less hostile when he answeredBut I don't understand how you could sit there and watch her do that to herself Ian shook his head in disgust, and Jared's shoulders hunched in response“What kind of a man –” “A practical one,” Jeb interruptedJeb stood over us, a bulky cardboard box in his arms “It's why Jared's the best at getting what we needBecause he can do what has to be doneOr watch what has to be doneEven when watching's harder than doing “Now, I know it's closer to breakfast than supper, but I figured some of you haven't eaten in a while,” Jeb went on, changing the subject without subtl | | Saturday, January 1st, 2011 | | 12:11 pm |
@@@@@ Even when he was flat broke after a major @@@@@ Even when he was flat broke after a major financial setback, he continued to refer to himself as a rich manHe would cover himself by saying, "There is a difference between being poor and being broke- Broke is temporary, and poor is eternal My poor dad would also say, "I'm not interested in money," or "Money doesn't matter My rich dad always said, "Money is power The power of our thoughts may never be measured or appreciated, but it became obvious to me as a young boy to be aware of my thoughts and how I expressed myselfI noticed that my poor dad was poor not because of the amount of money he earned, which was significant, but because of his thoughts and actionsAs a young boy, having two fathers, I became acutely aware of being careful which thoughts I chose to adopt as my ownWhom should I listen to-my rich dad or my poor dad? Although both men had tremendous respect for education and learning, they disagreed in what they thought was important to learnOne wanted me to study hard, earn a degree and get a good job to work for moneyHe wanted me to study to become a professional, an attorney or an accountant or to go to business school for my MBAThe other encouraged me to study to be rich, to understand how money works and to learn how to have it work for me"I don't work for money!" were words he would repeat over and over, "Money works for me!" At the age of 9, I decided to listen to and learn from my rich dad about moneyIn doing so, I chose not to listen to my poor dad, even though he was the one with all the college degrees
A Lesson From Robert Frost
Robert Frost is my favourite poetAlthough I love many of his poems, my favorite is The Road Not TakenI use its lesson almost daily:
The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden blackOh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads onto way, I doubted if I should ever come back I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence; Two roads diverged in a wood, and I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference Robert Frost(1916)
And that made all the difference Over the years, I have often reflected upon Robert Frost's poemChoosing not to listen to my highly educated dad's advice and attitude about money was a painful decision, but it was a decision that shaped the rest of my life Once I made up my mind whom to listen to, my education about money beganMy rich dad taught me over a period of 30 years, until I was age 39He stopped once he realized that I knew and fully understood what he had been trying to drum into my often thick s | | 5:47 am |

The other kid jolts him in the face, and @@@@@ The other kid jolts him in the face, and he pauses for a moment, drops his gloves, and dabs at his outraged noseAnother punch makes his ear ringDon't let up, Bobby, his father shoutsA missed punch travels around his head, the forearm scraping the skin on his face In the belly, Robert He swings out feverishly, flailing his armsThe other kid walks into a punch, sits down surprised, and then gets up slowlyRobert keeps swinging at him, hitting him, and the kid goes down again, and the referee stops the fightBobby Hearn on a TKO, he shouts, gives four points to the BluesThe kids yell, and Bill Hearn is putting a bear hug around him as he climbs out of the ropes set up on the grassOh, you gave it to him, Bobby, I told you to give it to him in the belly, that was the way to fight, kid, goddam, I got to hand it to you, you're not afraid to step in and mix it He wiggles out of the hugLeave me alone, Pop, let me go, and he runs away over the grass to his tent, trying not to cry
There are the summers in Charlevoix, the expanding house in the Chicago suburb, the world of long green lawns, and quiet beaches, and croquet courses and tennis courts; there are all the intimate and extensive details of wealth, the things he takes for granted, and understands, separates only laterThere is also six years at Fieldmont Country Day, more of the fellows and demerits, the occasional sermon, the individual regular-fellow ethic borrowed from more exclusive eastern prep schools
You do not lie You do not cheat You do not swear You do not screw And you go to church
Always of course with the booming voice, the meaty palm of Bill Hearn in the background, combined somehow -- never believably -- with dancing lessons on Saturday mornings, and the persistent avid aspirations of Ina HearnBobby, why don't you take Elizabeth Perkins to your Junior Dance? Deep in the womb which covers me, Green as grass from house to house Only that idea comes later

"Aaah, for Christ's sake," Minetta muttered"Come on, let's go back They had finished trimming the poles, and he and Polack each picked up one of them, while Wyman gathered the two crosspieces and the machetesThey strolled back toward the hollow, Roth following with the bird "What the hell took you men so long?" Croft snapped "We did it fast as we could, Sergeant," Wyman said meekly"All right, come on, let's make the stretcher He took Wilson's blanket, spread it out smoothly on top of his poncho, and then laid the poles along each side, parallel and about four feet apartHe flipped the blanket and poncho over each pole, and then they began rolling it up like a scroll, tightening it as much as possibleThe struts were notched at each end, and when the poles were about twenty inches apart, he slipped the struts in place, one at each end, about six inches from the tipsThen he took his belt and Wilson's and lashed them in a loop about each strut to make it secureWhen he had done he picked up the stretcher and dropped it againIt held together, but he was not satisfied"Give me the belt to your pants," he told themHe worked busily for a few minutes and when he had done, the stretcher was a rectangle formed by the two poles and the two struts, with the blanket and poncho substituting for a canvasUnderneath them, the belts were fastened diagonally like stays to keep the stretcher poles from shearing"I think that oughta hold," he mutteredHe frowned and looked up to see most of the platoon gathered in a circle about Rot | | 5:54 am |

“You cannot do this to himYou’ll kill him! @@@@@ “You cannot do this to himYou’ll kill him! Get out of hereNow!” Her eyes half blinded with fury and fear and tears, Marie started toward the left side of the lobby, desperately wanting to look back, but just as desperately knowing she could not do soShe reached the narrow set of glass double doors, colliding with a uniformed bellhop carrying suitcases inside “Pardon, madame!” “Moi aussi,” she stammered, maneuvering again blindly around the luggage and out to the pavementWhat could she do—what should she do? David was somewhere in the hotel—in the hotel! And a strange man recognized her and warned her and told her to get out—get away! What was happening? My God, someone’s trying to kill David!

THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM 286 insignia on its passenger door, the cruciform standard of some high office of the Church, inched its way to the canopied areaMarie stared at the small emblem; it was circular and no more than six inches in diameter, a globe of royal purple surrounding an elongated crucifix of goldShe winced and held her breath; her panic now had a disturbing new dimensionShe had seen that insignia before, and all she remembered was that it had filled her with horror The limousine stopped; both curbside doors were opened by the smiling, bowing doorman as five priests emerged, one from the front seat, four from the spacious rear sectionThose from the back immediately, oddly, threaded their way into the noonday crowds of strollers on the pavement, two forward in front of the vehicle, two behind it, one of the priests whipping past Marie, his black coat making contact with her, his face so close she could see the blazing unpriestly eyes of a man who was no part of a religious orderThen the association with the emblem, the religious insignia, came back to her! Years ago, when David—when Jason—was in maximum therapy with Panov, Mo had him sketch, draw, doodle whatever images came to himTime and again that terrible circle with the thin crucifix appeared invariably torn apart or stabbed repeatedly with the pencil pointThe Jackal! Suddenly, Marie’s eyes were drawn to a figure crossing the rue de RivoliIt was a tall man in dark clothes—a dark sweater and trousers—and he was limping, dodging the traffic, a hand shielding his face from the drizzle that soon would turn into rainThe limp was false! The leg straightened if only for an instant and the swing of the shoulder that compensated was a defiant gesture she knew only too wellIt was David! Another, no more than eight feet from her, also saw what she sawA miniature radio was instantly brought to the man’s lipsMarie rushed forward, her extended hands the claws of a tigress as she lunged at the killer in priest’s clothing “David!” she screamed, drawing blood from the face of the Jackal’s ma | | Wednesday, December 29th, 2010 | | 12:03 pm |
