Squalebear's Account Talk

Sort by newest Sort by date
Steady, have you ever preached the Gospel. If not, you should ! Your
words are always amazing and certainly lift ones spirit. Thank you for
that and more my good friend. :)

I'm gonna stop posting about my trials and tribulations as I truely want
members to stop by without my constant boo-hoo's. The next time I'm
ready to post, I want it to be a revelation of Stock Market genius and
money making advise. ;)

I went from medium risk and dropped down into my <1%IFT Level just in
time to avoid any sizable loses that the -3.22% (average) beating we
took on Monday would have hit me with. Today, I bailed to the (G)arage
for the last 6 trading days left in June. This month, I've done better then
the stock funds (so far) but still managed to lose -1.62% MTD. Last month
I ended May up +5.64% MTD. (not to shabby). I've got plenty of time
to watch the markets now. Maybe I can translate that fact into making
some extra dollars come July. ;)

The Gospel - as I understand it - is the Greatest and most central Message to LIFE on Earth. If ever there was the ability to forgive, to not keep account of the wrongs, to always look beyond the label (race, nationality, and every other description imaginable including 'gay') and focus wholly on the individual and his/her worth it is through the Gospel. To the greatest degree possible we have the capicity to love and care for one another - it is only to the extent that the Gospel is a living testimony of our existence.

In my own way I try to 'preach the Gospel' - but not in the manner that you are asking. I would never allow it to become a game - where I'm stiving for 'numbers' or any kind of recognition. Sadly enough I have not found any Denomination that knows and lives the Gospel as it's meant to be known and lived - because meaningless doctrines and a distorted Gospel dominate the over all picture. In General they are all 'Caught up in the Sin Theme' and largely seem to think Jesus is simply a 'Ticket to Heaven' and Grace and Love on a Godly Level is reduced to an event that happened with the Cross and that is the end of the story. For me Grace and Love through the Cross are the foundation of everything and is the Means by which all of our interactions should be based.

So I guess the bottom line from my perspective - The Gospel is not meant to be 'Preached' it is meant to be lived - and our lives should be a Living Testimony of its truth.

Your words are always amazing and certainly lift ones spirit. Thank you for
that and more my good friend. :)

I'm honored. Squale, you allow me to be an open vessel of love in the way you live your life and how it is expressed. So to God be the glory for allowing us to have a Chemistry where by we can build each other up and know each other on a level that brings us into even greater blessings.

I'm gonna stop posting about my trials and tribulations as I truely want
members to stop by without my constant boo-hoo's.

That's completely UNDERSTANDABLE - and we should honor that by not 'bombaring you with questions about your health'. The HEART is a major organ - but you're a lot more than that and the initial stages of recovery are slow. CB is a living testimony of 'full recovery' and I know many friends who are have 'stents' and are doing great.

I'll stop too - but as you get stronger keep your activity UP and bring the weight down. Never ever smoke again - eat right - and in time you'll be even stronger and healthier than before the heart attack.

The next time I'm ready to post, I want it to be a revelation of Stock Market genius and money making advise. ;)

That's a very encouraging sign - you're ready to move on and I fully appreciate your feelings. Sounds good Squale!!

I went to the G Garage because that's my 'comfort zone' for now and I'm perfectly happy with that. I went into S/I and stomped them down like Springs - until I lost roughly 4% - then jumped off to stay back and 'Will watch them Spring to New Heights'

Going UP - roughly 6% in any Month is outstanding.

Well - it's good to have you back Squale and the friendship is mutual.
 
What's 7 lbs-04 ozs,,,, 20.5 inches long,,,,and looks pretty in Pink ?

Give up ?

Pop-pop Squalebear's Grandaughter ! She arrived at 10:45pm !
One of the many blessings I refused to miss on May 10th, 2009.

Momma, my son and baby "KIERA" are a picture of health !

Yesterdays rally had nothing on our special event. Non the
less, I'm certainly glad to see the market recouped some of
the losses it had on Monday. Hopefully, the tight range the
market has been trading in, will now be broken and we can
finally see 1000 in the S&P500. That would be huge ! ;)
 
Kiera - sounds 'perfect'!! Ideal weight and length and very healthy 'pink' appearance.

Be careful because Grandkids pick up on the immense love, adoration, thrills, and excitement a Grandparent has. Now if you don't mind these 'incredibly strong attachments' then that's OK and you've got nothing to worry about. Soak it all up and Kiera will undoubtedly soak you up as well.

Congratulations !!!

Oh BTW - Kelly (the same message for you)

(LoL) Close ! She had to be difficult and pick a name we'll never remember !
It's pronounced: "Naaa-Nee" ! (geeez) ! Gotta love her ! With so many
family member's (extended thru adoption and love), we're all trying to
solidify our identities to avoid new-born confusion. Sounds complicated.
It's not ! It's yet another adventure for the squalebear family !;)

The share prices for the TSP have never been so "unchanged" during
an open trading day ! Wuuuuz Uuuuup Wid Dat ! Must have been having
a shift party and set the damn thing on automatic response. Heck, they
could of taken the day off with little notice.:suspicious:

I would open that pretty cherub a Roth IRA tomorrow and start funding for an education some 18 years down the road. Start early and do dividend reinvestments and watch the balance grow right along with the child.
