Mind's trying to grapple with a statement about filters... Secrets... Fear of speaking, out of fear of judgement...
Most times, I don't think too long about the repercussions of what I will say.
However, I don't like to gossip about people who aren't present, and, if I believe some thing can and should be kept secret, I try to do so.

On another note:
As a teen, I was a fairly avid reader... Possibly b/c both my parents had extensive libraries, chock full of great books.
However, it seems that I read a lot less as an adult. I suspect that's mostly b/c I'm not making the time to do so.
Then again, maybe I'm just reading in different media, such as Facebook or news via AP Mobile...

Random note:
I really enjoy working with sequences and series in mathematics, especially using them to solve linear differential equations..
A cool fallout from that area is the equation:
e^(i*pi) = -1
...neat, b/c it combines 4 of the pivotal numbers in math, and opens up the ability to take imaginary powers of numbers...

multiple updates, 1/17/12
nstead of thinking about what I want, I'm trying to cultivate an "attitude of gratitude" for what have...
Not always an easy task, as I miss some of the life luxuries that have been "lost", like eating out and catching movies and/or music regularly...
--------------
Worried that sleep won't come quickly, as these are my normal waking hours. I'd like to sleep now, so that I can have some business hours to work with, later today.
--------------
1:11 a.m.
Having a hard time thinking of an original, upbeat creative status update...
--------------
...and then...
I begin to think I can control an addiction, as I extend the time since I last engaged in it. That's the danger of being a binger instead of a daily user...
Or, in the absence of "typical" appeals to a HP, such as prayer, I begin to think I've beat it on my human power alone.
It's hard to remind myself, though, that I DID (and still do) depend on Groups, Sponsorship, and Step work, at least, with the alcohol addiction...
But, am I bodily and mentally different from my fellows? Considering most of them are alcoholics too, it's hard to say - except there IS that whole other wrinkle of my bipolar brain..

90% of Facebook users won't repost this. They are too afraid to stand up for the truth in today's secular world. But when Odin sent Thor to slay the frost giants, he was thinking of you. If you believe that He loves Yggdrasil with all His heart, and will fight to defend it and us at Ragnarök, please share this. If you know in your heart you'll be with Him in Valhalla, share this. Those who brave the ridicule of this secular world will truly be rewarded with mead and wild boar in the sacred halls of Valhalla! Skál!

Quotes about patience
These were found on www.values.com :
"Face your deficiencies and acknowledge them; but do not let them master you. Let them teach you patience, sweetness, insight... When we do the best we can, we never know what miracle is wrought in our life, or in the life of another."
Helen Keller Author, Lecturer, Activist (1880-1968)
"How poor are they that have not patience! What wound did ever heal but by degrees?"
William Shakespeare Dramatist, Poet (1564-1616)

Straining to think of a status update at 4:30 am.
Obviously, I'm awake, but I don't have much else going on, at this very moment...
My words with friends are caught up, I've read the Facebook news feed, and 89.5 KMFA's playing on the radio.
I hope to slip swiftly into sleep, now, but I suspect the 10 pm coffees may foil that plan...
Actually, what I really hope for are some exotic dreams over the next 6 hours.
