The LORD tarries, eyes rouse to morn; A soul is quiet, content for now.But restless is the day.
It wants to get it right.
He is bread enough.

Three Square Feet
October2
The average human body takes up 3 square feet of human real estate on this planet. In the year 1950, the average 3-square-foot American consumed 292 square feet of house. By 2008, the same American increased his consumed space to 900 square feet. He takes up 300 times his size.
In crowded Hong Kong in the early 1900s, government policy mandated that each person have at least 35 square feet per person. I have 295; and even though that’s only a third of the U.S. average, it’s over 8 times the minimum required by the Hong Kong mandate.
Americans, Canadians and Australians report the most square feet per person. Japanese report the least.
