Be the change


I love the quote by Gandhi "be the change you desire to see in the world". Tomorrow I get to go speak to about 50 University students from PEPERDIN UNIVERSITY. They are in Heidelberg on an exchange program. I have been honored to speak to them 3 times. I basically want to communicate the idea of going to where the poor are, seeing the need and then trying to see how they can help change things for the good. Everyone has gifts and resources that could help improve the state of this world. Most of us use everything we have on ourselves. I believe you'll never really be satisfied until you enter into the role of making a difference. For the sake of the world, the poor, and for our own feeling of value we need to go...and then we need to give. Pray for me. I hope I can help shape their minds, and challenge them to make a difference.

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

I keep thinking we really should take advantage of the money Germany is offering to trade old cars in for 2500Euros towards a new car. If I buy a car that's around 10,000 Euros, then the Government is actually going to pay 25% of the cost of that car. That's really a very good deal. Since I know I will need a new car in the near future, I feel I should get a new 10,000 Euro car. The Opel Agilia is around 9,900 Euros. It's got 5 doors, and room for 5. It is pretty safe, and comes with a 6 year warranty. I would not call it my dream car, but I could easily afford it. I'm trying to be wise here. There are other cars in thi
