Capital Goods
So what are capital goods economically speaking. Well, they are the ones that increase productive efficiency and permit us to have a greater output of consumer goods at a future date from the free resources that are offered. This is another aspect of what is known as capitalism.

Choices Made
Life is all about the choices we make. Some are good and some are bad. The choices will make affects you and even some family and friends that are around you. Your choices affect your personal and even your professional life. I remember a choice that I made to become a teacher, but ended up becoming a nurse instead, but really these were not bad choices for I used by education to become a teacher in my profession of a nurse. After 16 years of nursing and teaching I made a choice to become a writer and I am loving that choice for I am sharing what I know and learned in life. I am happy with the choices that I have made even though I am a single person for I am not lonely for I have many books that offer many friends old and new.

Happy birthdays!!!!
What is it about celebrating birthdays? I will be 60 in just about two and half months, and that is a celebration in itself in these days. I was never really a party person for I do not like being the center of attention a lot of the time. Birthdays are a time to celebrate your life and whatever you wish to convey to others, and if it is a party your family and friends want to give you accept it for this is the gift of LOVE of them.

A Quill Pen
Who has ever written with a quill pen before? I have and it is an experience having to go back and forth to dip the nib (a nib is the portion of the pen that holds the ink) into a little jar of ink or as they did a very long time ago in inkwells on a desk, but you probably know that. The tips are very sharp but I believe everyone will know that fact. Some quill pens are stiff and others can be flowy with the breeze when it blows. Just think about it for a second or a few minutes.

Eclipse
Cannot experience the solar eclipse this day for the image is the reason why. The definition of a solar eclipse in brief is when the moon crosses completely over the moon and nighttime takes over daytime for a few short hours. You will hear and see dusk happening and the nighttime creatures making the presence known a bit early.

Marriage
Marriage is always a work in progress where two people must learn all about making compromises and learning how to be more understanding and having patience with each other. Two people must be able to work through any problems and show that they are active listeners (who listen to each other).

Paddington Bear
Another bear series that I enjoyed reading are the 'Paddington Bear' books. This is the series of a British bear who is one who really enjoys marmalade. Paddington Bear is one that wears a raincoat rain or shine and a floppy fedora. He comes for a visit and has a lot of adventures.

Winnie-the-Pooh
Being a book reviewer of mainly children's books I cannot help to keep going back to my favorite ones that I had read as a kid. Who doesn't remember reading 'Winnie-the-Pooh' sometime in elementary school. Winnie-the-Pooh or better known as Edward Bear can teach anyone many lessons on how to be a good person no matter age, creed, or national origin. This is the first in a series of acrostic/critiques.

Signatures
What is a signature? Is it only your name or is something else? We all learned to print then write in cursive our names early in our education whatever year that happened to be. To me a signature could be just a mark on a page like the image above. Remember the phrase 'X' marks the spot. That is a signature of sorts. One just has to learn who they are name wise and mark their 'X' in some way artistically, educationally, socially and even spiritually.
