The price of soul…the price is higher for the haves as compared to the have-nots wouldn’t you agree? J

 

As for a request for a critique, I think that if someone had never been in correspondence with you, had no idea who you are or where you are coming from, they would delete the email somewhere around getting to the “January 3rd 2002,” point in your email.

 

They will likely be thinking they received it in error, but curiosity would bring them to at least that point. No offense intended, but it is lengthy and somewhat cryptic.

 

I am indeed receiving your emails, and still reading them with interest.

 

Hope your weekend was good, have a great week.

 

Ian

Ian – I’m having a few “problems” with my “network” and although I have it “figured” that you get blind copied on every broadcasted email you may not have received this last one.

 

I have been “holding back” on fully answering your 2 questions for the simple reason I am looking for more “viewpoints” than the one I have which is “good” on the one hand that we are all coming “to-get-her” [sic] butbad” in the sense I might end up dying the richest person in the grave sooner than I “hoped.”

 

On the other hand I know it is not up to me

 

Or

 

anyone else when our time is up, not to suggest it is preordained; on the contrary it is all a function of maintaining “balance”.

 

One cannot, however, dismiss the “still waters” and so I am looking for more of the type of critique you have given me in the past.

 

When you look at the “last one” I just want to know how someone you know reading it without knowing anything about me would “view” it, first from the standpoint of “interest”, how long before they would be “bored” and second able to “see” the connecting dots with your question of “pricing”, although your verbiage,Have you ever been tempted to become a part of it and live in blissful ignorance with the shiny things?” didn’t mention anything about “the price of soul”!

 

Enjoy the weekend.

 

Gary
