An ex-Mormon’s thoughts on The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints:
Month: April 2026
24
Standing tiptoe, a man loses balance,
Walking a stride, he has no pace,
Kindling himself he fails to light,
Acquiring himself forfeits his hearers,
Admiring himself, he does so alone.
Pride has never bought a man greatness
But, according to the way of life,
Brings the ills that make him unfit,
Make him unclean in the eyes of his neighbor,
And a same man will have none of them.
The Way of Life According to Lao Tzu
Translated by Witter Bynner
Bobbleheads
Someone could and should make a fortune creating and selling a set of bobbleheads of Trump and his cabinet!

A leader is best
When people barely know that he exists,
Not so good when people obey and acclaim him,
Worse when they despise him.
‘Fail to honor people,
They failed to honor you;’
But a good leader, who talks little,
When his work is done, his aim fulfilled,
They will all say, ‘We did this ourselves.‘
The Way of Life According to Lao Tzu
Translated by Witter Bynner
A Miracle
Donald Trump has achieved what seemed impossible: You can get bullshit from a horse’s ass!
