It's interesting to read about different people's ideas of value and values. Values are all relative. So, no I am not missing the point about values. Its a zero sum game in the sense that time and money and ideals decisions are all inter-related. For some, the value of money saved by, in this case m...

Thanks for your message. At times I have told her that whatever will be wasted--and more. She knows that. Here is a story (details changed in the very unlikely event a family member were to read this) that is telling. At an important birthday, I think 21, my mother asked if I wanted a watch. I had t...
