· Moleskin
o We are constantly affecting our form. There is an idea in economics which I’m sure is much more beautiful in Aristotle’s metaphysics or in Beaker’s inorganic chem class that some goods take consumption capital. For example, coffee takes some investment before it tastes good.
o I have a hunch that most of the best parts of life require consumption capital. Behavioral economist Dan Ariely observes that we tend to love or value things in direct proportion to the work we put into the thing. If you want to love your body, put work into it, if you want to love music, work at it, if you want to love your children and spouse, work on it. If you want to love your relationship with God, work on it. What consumption capital are you building? What loves are you forming?
· Prayer:
o LeMond (having a girl! J Prayer for healthy development and delivery)
o Tortuga: Jackie had a good experience with chiropractor, pray the benefits last.
o Katniss: Prayer for a good birthday for the 2.0.
