5 Times Around the Earth in My Hyundai Sonata

The Earth's circumference at the equator is 24,901 miles.

In the past 7 years of owning my car, I have circled the Earth 5 times.

The majority of this time consisted largely of traveling to and from work.

Imagine the savings from personal transportation costs, pollution and office infrastructure we will be able to enjoy when companies start realizing the win-win nature of their employees working from home.

Intelligence vs. Wisdom

I would rather have a nice kitchen table than provide 20 people with clean water for the next 20 years.

I made that choice. It was a completely rational choice. It was my preferred desire.

Yet, intellectually, I'm aware that the choice was incorrect.

So, I don't need more education. I need to change that which I desire. That's religion. Re-prioritizing our passions based on a transformed way of seeing the world.
