Your Mental Attitude - Inspiration

Whatever your life’s desire may be, it will rake on new significance and new appeal for you when that tremendously powerful force we term “inspiration” takes over command.

All great works of art . . . scientific advance­ments . . . business developments . . . man s modern conveniences.., elevation of our stand­ard of living . . . greater social and civic freedoms resulted from individual and collective inspiration which devised
the necessary machinery to accomplish these ends.

This ‘message is inspired by a burning desire to kindle in your heart the spark of realization that you can achieve anything your mind con­ceives . . . if you’ll follow through on your creative imagination with intelligent effort.

Actually, there is very little difference between what you are now and what you would like to be. The very moment you add just a little plus value to what you already have,
you will move ahead of the crowd.

The $25,000.00-a-year man doesn’t need nor possess ten times the ability of the $2,500.00 a year man. As little as ten per cent edge often accounts for the difference. The answer lies in the fact that one man is inspired to do better, while the other drifts along in complacent satis­faction to be “just average.

General Pershing said: “America is a nation of peace loving people, but once inspired to de­feat tyranny, we astound the world.” Production records during the last war did astound the world. These records were accomplished by an inspired people.

YOU will be amazed by the record you can make for yourself through inspiration
... plus a little perspiration.

The strength that lies within you, when prop­erly stimulated by a desire to achieve certain goals, will create a new record for your acquisi­tion of fine friendships . . . greater popularity and advancement . . . substantial and lasting success . . . security.

Right now you are better and smarter than you think you are! Determine this very minute what you want most out of life. Then start out after it! Claim your heritage!

Put your creative imagination to work. Make a definite decision to improve both the quantity and quality of your efforts, today. Arouse those slumbering talents
... accept only the very best life has to offer.

OBEY THAT IMPULSE .. . NOW!

“The manner in which one single ray of light, one single precious hint, will clarify and energize the whole mental life of him who receives it, is among the most wonderful
and heavenly of intellectual phenomena.”

Arnold Bennett

"I Saw Santa Wearing Camouflage"
(from SandRat)

I saw Santa wearing camouflage
Underneath the starlit sky last night
He didn't see me creep through the sands to have a peek
He thought that I was tucked away in my Bedroll fast asleep

Then I saw Santa hop out of his Jeep
Leaving all of Iraq in Peaceful Sleep
Carrying Freedom and Democracy
If only America could see
Santa wearing camouflage.

I saw Santa wearing camouflage
Underneath the starlit sky last night
He didn't see me creep through the sands to have a peek
He thought that I was tucked away in my Bedroll fast asleep

Then I saw Santa drive off in his Jeep
Leaving all of Iraq in Peaceful Sleep
What a laugh it will be
When America finally understands
Santa’s wearing camouflage.

Santa’s wearing camouflage.

Is there an official Free Republic Fruit cake?

If there is, I would consume a bite if restrained and sufficiently inebriated.

"Ask him for me about "Blood Rank"... heh, heh, heh..."

Okay, I will.:-)

And yes, I was VERY glad to hear from him. I had no idea the phones were down and was wondering why he hadn't called.
