WHAT WOULD I CHANGE IN THE WORLD IF I
COULD?
Hello there, welcome to
WORDS ON MARBLE 64 and the 6th post in the series, “turning your
passion to purpose” as we approach the climax of the series for this season in
2013 and migrate to another thought-provoking series in our next two post – in essence
this is the penultimate post before our new series.
In our last post, Jack Canfield (the sensational International
writer) was in our spotlight as his eleven (11) purpose driven questions were
outlined in our bid to stretch our frontiers in understanding what it entails
in cultivating passion and identifying our purpose here on earth -God being our
ultimate inspiration, the only one we can seek his face and our source of
strength. We were advised to have answers to the questions individually as we
seek to know more about ourselves and infixed gifts from God on us. The eleven questions
again for the purpose of memory;
- What are my natural gifts?
- What are my skills and talents?
- What do I love to do?
- When do I feel the most alive?
- What am I passionate about?
- What brings me the greatest joy in life?
- When do I feel the best about myself?
- What are my personal strengths and characteristics?
- What have others always said that I am really good at?
- How do I most enjoy interacting with other people?
- What would I change in the world if I could?
Now it is pertinent we consider these questions in our day to
day thoughts, actions and activities no matter where we find ourselves in life and
no matter our age or status (be you a student, graduate, worker, elderly,
retired, etc). God has tailor-made us for a purpose and if you still have life
and can breath this moment regardless of your age or status, that implies God
still has a purpose for you to accomplish here on earth. From questions 1 to 10
and the unique 11th question, we can pin point our passion and we
only have to align them with what God wants and the purpose for creation – a world
of harmony, integrity, sincerity, accountability, peace, joy, comfort, abundance,
wealth, charity and above all LOVE and GOOD MORALS and MAKING HEAVEN AT LAST.
No matter your current state or professional choice, educated,
uneducated, with a job, without a job, a student, there is this inbuilt ability
in you from God and there are skills, gifts and potentials in you that you can
apply in changing the world. As I write I see someone reading this having a
role in Politics to clean the mess there, Business is just waiting for somebody
here to embrace in integrity and sincerity, Physical Science/Engineering are in
need of somebody to reposition (it could be you), someone’s role is in Medicine
or Life science to improve life and discover helpful concepts and laws, the Sports
cycle is there for somebody reading this to improve the world, Law needs people
of integrity to sanitize, Education/Art/Social Science and Humanity cycle
require somebody to go and use his potential there. There is a good life
waiting for someone right now – you just have to grab it!!!
All of the aforementioned fields and professions were made by
God for mankind by inspiration to man and like I stated earlier the purpose is
streamlined to each and everyone of us MAKING HEAVEN AT LAST.
DON’T WITHOLD YOUR TRUE GIFTS AND TALENTS FROM THE WORLD AS LONG
AS GOD IS INVOLVED.
Ladies and gentlemen I would like to save the rest content of
this series for my next post as we redirect our steps and get fired up for the
challenges ahead. God needs you to get going!!!
See you in the last post
of this series very soon. God bless you!

THE SELF DISCOVERY SERIES (QUOTES 2)
I must consider more closely this cycle of good and bad days
which I find coursing within myself. Passion, attachment, the urge to action,
inventiveness, performance, order all alternate and keep their orbit; cheerfulness,
vigor, energy, flexibility and fatigue, serenity as well as desire.

Goethe (1749 - 1832)

In the life of each of us, I said to myself, there is a place

water, and he is even condemned to find much of his own mind.
F. H. Bradley (1846 - 1924)
British philosopher.
Aphorisms
The play of art is a mirror that through the centuries
constantly arises anew, and in which we catch sight of ourselves in a way that
is often unexpected or unfamiliar: what we are, what we might be, and what we
are about.
Hans-Georg Gadamer (1900 - 2002)
German philosopher.
The Play of Art
Life is an endless recruiting of witnesses. It seems we need to
be observed in our postures of extravagance or shame, we need attention paid to
us. Our own memory is altogether too cherishing … Other accounts are required.

~~~~ORBIT FEATURE 4>>>> LANDMARK DISCOVERY
The first piston engine was developed in 1690 by
the French physicist and inventor Denis Papin and was used for pumping water.
Papin's engine, which was little more than a curiosity, was a crude machine in
which the actual work was done by air rather than steam pressure. It consisted
of a single cylinder that also served as a boiler. A small amount of water was
placed in the bottom of the cylinder and heated until steam was formed. The
pressure of this steam raised a piston fitting in the cylinder, and, after it
was raised, the source of heat was removed from the bottom of the cylinder. As
the cylinder cooled, the steam condensed and air pressure on the upper side of
the piston forced the piston down.
In 1698, the English engineer Thomas Savery
built a steam engine that used two copper vessels alternately filled with steam
from a boiler. Savery's engine was used for pumping water, but could only raise
water about 6 m (20 ft) without using pressures which risked explosion, and was
quickly abandoned. The first practical steam engine, the so-called atmospheric
engine, was built by the English inventor Thomas Newcomen in 1712. This device
had a vertical cylinder and a piston that was counterweighted. Steam admitted
to the bottom of the cylinder at very low pressure acted with the counterweight
to move the piston to the top of the cylinder. When the piston reached this
point, a valve opened automatically and sprayed a jet of cold water into the
cylinder. The water condensed the steam, and atmospheric pressure forced the
piston back to the bottom of the cylinder. A rod attached to the arm of the
pivoted beam that connected piston and counterweight moved up and down as the
piston moved, actuating a pump. Newcomen's engine was not efficient, but it was
sufficiently practical to be used extensively for pumping water from coal
mines.In the course of making improvements to the Newcomen engine, the Scottish engineer and inventor James Watt produced a series of inventions that made possible the modern steam engine. Watt's first important development was the design of an engine that incorporated a separate condensing chamber for the steam. This engine, patented in 1769, greatly increased the economy of the Newcomen machine by avoiding the loss of steam that occurred in alternate heating and cooling of the engine cylinder. In Watt's engine, the cylinder was insulated and remained at steam temperature. The separate condenser chamber, which was water-cooled, was equipped with a pump to maintain a vacuum so that the steam was drawn from the cylinder to the condenser. The pump was also used to remove the water from the condenser chamber.
