		<description><![CDATA[With all due respect to those educational administrators that are trying desperately to make a difference, I believe that if we are not teaching success in our schools, we are teaching failure through negligence.  On the bright side, educational philosophy has always been about teaching our children math, science, reading, writing, social studies, history, and so on.  We all know the basic subjects taught in our public schools, and we generally agree on the importance of these matters.  More “specialized” curriculum – like “life skills” – are typically elective classes, and instruct children on the basics of financial management, and the like (life skills that deal in the linear, the exact, the non-abstract are generally regarded as teachable on an elective basis).  On the negative side, however, we do not teach our children lifelong accomplishment – to succeed – and how to create abundance in all areas of living.  We do not instruct kids on the commonly accepted elements of success, and therefore what it means to be a contented, productive, accomplished, or happy person, if you will.  Any adult of reasonable intelligence and caring should be interested in why we do not teach such skills to our children, and indeed what those “hard skills” of success, achievement, and abundance would be/could be.  I would argue that the core components of success have not changed (and are in fact readily teachable), but it is the terms of measurement – or what constitutes the actual acquisition of success – that is relative, inconsistent, and ever changing.  If teaching these success elements were compulsory, we might repair many homes, create better professionals, reduce crime rates, and simply spread more hope.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The best way to stop a child from crying is to distract them, occupying their mind with new stimuli.  The best way to get attention is to do something outlandishly unexpected.  The quickest path to wealth is to have an ingenious idea that becomes virally popular. When the U.S. joined in World War II, the entire country came together in support of winning the war.  Time and again, the solution to major issues, or a seemingly insurmountable problem has been a novel concept (new idea), or a Cause greater than the sum of its parts, or ideally both.  I’m sure you can think of many more examples, even stronger than these.  The point is that we see only as we focus, but that focal power can be enough to change the world, given a Cause plus new ideas.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am troubled that war is not only likely, but also imminent, unless the power structures around the planet (and the little people) use the current financial crisis as a wake-up call.  Pressures tend to lead to conflict, to warfare, to resolution, and finally to renewed stability.  Those at the helm around the world know this recipe, and therefore we the people must realize this formula as well.  For we the people have the ultimate responsibility – through a coalition of conscience – to keep the ‘powers that be’ accountable and away from inciting war.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The balance between gravity and centrifugal force would eventually win over the plate spinner and finally plates would begin to fall.  I always mused that the plate spinner was a good metaphor for life; we rush around trying to keep all of our “plates” spinning (balanced), but it tends to become too much too fast, and we must reduce our spinning plates.]]></description>

It was not my father’s artwork that lacked some quality or appeal; it was my father’s principles or personal integrity that held back all possibility for large-scale exposure to his artwork. ]]></description>
