1. Today's Motivation


Keep moving forward


Raise yourself up just a little bit. Then see how very

good it feels.


Make a small positive change for the better. And you'll

know without a doubt that you can successfully make even

greater, more profound changes.


Lift the spirits of someone close to you. Experience

how it feels to truly change the world.


Make a modest amount of progress. You'll be learning how

to make much, much more.


Take one step toward your goal. And suddenly you're

positioned to take the next step.


The smallest positive action can overcome the biggest

negative doubt. Even if it's just a little bit, there's

always a way to keep moving forward.


-- Ralph Marston

Hi Friends


welcome back to our newsletter. How have you been these

couple of weeks? I got a bit slack about writing the newsletter

due to nothing much! Bit of boozing and a bit of recovering as

is our prerogative past 70! But it hurts. How sad? Try and enjoy

oneself with a bottle of wine or two and it kicks you in the guts!


Mainly because the retic work ceased once the heavy rains came

roaring in from the Indian Ocean, for the last two or three weeks.

Hasn't been so good a season for agricultural that I can remember.

At least as far back as the 60's and early 70's. It was in the

early 70's we had a recession apparently but because we wheat

and sheep farmers had an excellent run of seasons I didn't know

we had a recession till someone from the city was talking about it!


I have been getting a few quid from Adventures4U off the old

Internet via Steve Smith in Panama! look!

http://www.myredirects.com/adventure

When I tell the locals here they shake their head and say "you can't

do that! He lives in Panama, oh you silly boy No one should do

something like that on the net and risk peoples money" They Tut Tut

and walk away shaking their heads!


Surprise, surprise! Then how about this? I read John Mauldins

newsletter where apparently in and around Wall street and probably

close proximity to other stock exchanges, the whizz kids with their

state of the art trading software are engaging in a super duper

casino like operation, trading millions of shares in micro seconds

with enormous volumes in order to rake off minute profits in super

speed, building to colossal returns!


Guess who ends up losing? Yep you got it right. Superannuation and

pension funds. Governments then have to pick up the tab and increase

the countries debt burden. Guess who has to pay at the old end of

the day. Yep you got it right. The taxpayer. Well I never. Tut Tut.


You know, since compulsory superannuation was introduced, hasn't

that mountain of money coming in been like red rag to a bull! A

trading bull I mean! What do you reckon? So anyway, as long as we

keep fit in our old age the Guv can keep us working till the grave.


Anything new in the world?


Least I know that around Geraldton and the hinterland it is a

pleasure to see the rich green paddocks and know beside the abundant

harvest we are going to have, there will be glorious fields of

wildflowers in the spring. Isn't God great?


This week I wrote a short piece (in articles) from memory lane way

back then when we were young and the world our oyster.


It is a true story, so enjoy!


till next time, all blessings to you.

Fear at night...................by Stan Maley July 2009


It was two a.m. as I stood on the back of our old truck

out in that cold paddock, many years ago.


My part of the farming operation was to seed the crops,

working night shift. Night and morning we loaded the old

International truck with 78 bags, 180 lbs each. We used

eighteen bags of seed wheat and sixty bags of superphosphate

each shift. My brother Fred and I would jerk them up off

the ground inside the dusty old shed onto the back of the

truck. Then we stacked them up high on the little twelve

foot tray.


The Inter struggled up the long hill as the night drew in.

Slowly made its way out into the paddock where the Massey

tractor and combine seeder stood, cold and silent in the

dark furrows. In the pale light of lamps from the machine

I loaded a bag of wheat onto my back, then stepped over the

harrows, up the step of the combine and poured the grain

into the seed box, one bag at a time. Then I loaded four

bags of superphosphate into the fertilizer box, shut the

lids and moved the truck. Stepped up into the tractor,

started it up and moved off. Bouncing and roaring slowly

along, around the paddock, until we came to the truck.

Stopped and did it all over again. Each round took over

half an hour in this big paddock of four hundred acres.


The moon had risen in the East and climbed slowly up across

the sky. It was a still cold night. I stopped the tractor

and switched it off, as there was just enough light to see

to load the machine again.


Up on the truck tray I stood, looking to the hills in the

distance, having a bit of a spell from the work. Suddenly

my skin tingled! Fear gripped me! There was something else

here!


I looked quickly around and there was nothing. I stood still

and felt scared as hell. I was miles from anywhere with no

contact with anyone. What will I do? Thoughts raced through

my mind as the fear grew and chilled me. Something else was

near to me! I could feel it, but I could not see it.


Slowly a shadow passed over me.


I looked up. Twenty feet above me a whistling Kite was

hovering in the one spot, looking intently down at me.

I laughed, wiping away the fear.

7. A little humour.


A Scots boy came home from school and told his mother he had

been given a part in the school play. "Wonderful," says the

mother, "What part is it?" The boy says "I play the part of

the Scottish husband!" The mother scowls and says: "Go back

and tell your teacher you want a speaking part."
