New Tricks

         Adjusting the habits of daily living can be challenging. Change this habit... change that habit ... which way might be the best to proceed? Let's see now, something about "Old Dogs" and "New Tricks" or, some sort of thing? No more sitting in my chair with heavy books on the leg. Lots more up and at-um. Eat more! Drink more fluids! Take new pills twice a day! Change ways of lifting and, sitting and standing. Anyone with an old "Top Hat" to pull out a "Rabbit"? Anyhow, my quote of this day in July from a very wise man-

                    "For everything there is a season and a time for every matter under heaven:"

                                                                                   Ecclesiastes 3:1

  1. Known as "The Preacher" in his days of writing (ca. 750 B.C.!) ... a translation was made from the Hebrew to the Greek around 250 B.C.! [The Septuagint] Then in 1851, a translation was made into English by C.L. Brenton [Samuel Bagster & Sons, Ltd. London]. My copy of the 1999 printing [Hendrickson Publishers] on page 821 gives this quote written above. Hum ... maybe it should be "Old Words" ... "New Dogs"?
