"The gift of God to this enlightened age is the knowledge of the oneness of mankind and of the fundamental oneness of religion. War shall cease between nations, and by the will of God the Most Great Peace shall come; the world will be seen as a new world, and all men will live as brothers."
Abdu'l-Baha1

"O my God! O my God! Unite the hearts of Thy servants, and reveal to them Thy great purpose. May they follow Thy commandments and abide in Thy law. Help them, O God, in their endeavor, and grant them strength to serve Thee. O God! Leave them not to themselves, but guide their steps by the light of Thy knowledge, and cheer their hearts by Thy love. Verily, Thou art their Helper and their Lord."
Bahá’u’lláh2

The "Blogging Circle of Friends "  prompt for DAY 2197
Have you read any good books or articles lately? While reading the book/article did you discover something you didn't know before? If possible, include a link to the item.

I'm Reading

As everyone may, all ready, know I'm reading The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, which is composed of five novels and a short story. The novels are (1) The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, (2) The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, (3) Life the Universe and Everything, (4) So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish, and (5) Mostly Harmless; and the short story is Young Zaphod Plays It Safe. I begin reading "Life, the Universe and Everything" last night. The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide can be found on https://www.amazon.com/.


Since The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide is so large, I can't carry it with me when I leave the house. I have a smaller book I take with me when I leave the house, because I have to wait for the Paratransit bus to pick me up from wherever I am. The book I take with me is Preparing for Christ's New Name by Alex Gottdank. Preparing for Christ's New Name can be found at http://www.naturegraph.com/general/bahai/bahai.html, which is the Naturegraph catalog of Baha'i related books. The Naturegraph homepage is http://www.naturegraph.com/.

What have I discovered from my reading? The Ultimate Hithhiker's Guide, and its a good book to read before going to sleep because its humor brightens my mood. Preparing for Christ's New Name has given me insight into the prophecies in both the Old and the New Testament of the Holy Bible.

The "Blog City ~ Every Blogger's Paradise"  prompt for DAY 1804
What kind of Mom and Pop stores or restaurants still exist where you live? Do you frequent them as often or do you prefer the larger chains?

Mom and Pop Businesses

There are a couple of Mom and Pop businesses in my area of Las Vegas. One of them is an Oriental Restaurant and the other is ad care repair and tire shop. When it comes to restaurants, I have no preferences because I've found that most chain restaurants have the same quality food as the Mom and Pop restaurants. When it comes to car repair and tires, I found--when I had a car--that the Mom and Pop repair places do a better job, and they are normally just as expensive as the bigger places. I did find that the smaller repair shops are more inclined to work with Senior citizens when it comes to the cost of repairs.

It’s the last Creation Saturday of the month! Write a holiday related entry/story/poem using the words: festive, food, gifts, family, cheer, candy cane, and eggnog.

Festive Memories

Festive memories
of candy canes and eggnog,
of birthday and Christmas celebrations.

On Black Friday,
Grandpa purchased the Christmas Tree,
Grandma began purchasing and wrapping gifts.

At seventy-one,
going on seventy two,
joyful memories family and food
return eliciting good cheer, smiles, and laughter.
