Not the brightest idea

Woke up this morning feeling pretty cruddy. After some deliberation I figured I could tough it out.
I finished getting ready, grabbed an energy drink and hit the road.
Made it roughly halfway to the office and decided I had made the wrong decision and turned around to come back home.
And now that I have a chance to sleep… you guessed it… the energy drink has kicked in.
Doh!

Spanking and Proverbs

UPDATE: I thought this article offered an interesting perspective:

I learned to fear my parents – especially my father, to lie whenever possible to spare myself the possibility of being hurt/spanked again, to not trust my parents, and to hide my innermost thoughts, feelings, and struggles from my parents because I feared and did not trust them. I did not seek out their wisdom and teachings at the times I needed it the most because I did not trust them to understand and not hurt me. I have friends who sought out their parents’ guidance about nearly everything in their lives during their teen and young adult years. Those were my friends who were not spanked regularly or at all as children.

UPDATE: I got a text from my sister thinking this was a post written by me. It’s not.

The above paragraph is a quote from an article about spanking and different translations of “the rod” in Proverbs 13:24 and elsewhere. I offered the quote without any commentary because I’m still chewing on some of these ideas.

When you see a black bar with a chain link above a post on my site – it’s a link back to another article I’m sharing. You can click the title and it will take you to the linked post. Also, a green bar on the left (now with an orange box behind it) with an indention means the text next to the green bar is a quote. Also, a blue box with a quotation mark on the left signifies a quote.

Apparently the usability is not as usable as I thought. One of the first rules in usability is if you have to explain how to use it – it’s not user friendly. So maybe I’ll need to go back to the drawing board.
