time. One way to be entertained inexpensively is to visit one
of HPU’s libraries. [More]

tend to be pulled along in that direction…perhaps a self-fulfilling
prophecy! If you did this little exercise, what picture of
your life emerges? Is it a life that is successful or a life
that is significant? [More]
