We Are Alive! October 11th, 2024 Seeing Double
The last day of the week! I managed to get my 20 hours in, so I padded it with an extra 4 hours of door-knocking today.
I found a vehicle which was almost identical to the one I drive, except it was missing it's front bumper. They looked funny next to each other, sort of like I was seeing double.
I almost lost my keys, they were in my back pocket and I sat down. When I got up, about 30 minutes later, I realized my back pocket was empty! I was at an apartment building complex with many identical buildings. It took some visual reconstruction to figure out exactly WHERE I sat down.
I was so relieved when I found my keys. That could have been a big problem.
I was shocked to see a very high gas price (for around here). I almost couldn't believe my eyes: $3.80 cash.
Then I drove further down the road and I saw a much better price: 3.10 cash. What a difference!
How there can be an almost 20% difference in price based on location really baffles me. These two stations were only a few miles apart!

Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin
We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.
No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13
Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny
Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations.
Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books.

Yeah. Gas prices are jumping around a lot up here in Canada 🇨🇦 too. It will be $1.38 per litre in the morning then jump to almost $1.60 per litre in the afternoon. It’s crazy.
Fuel has gone up as well as parking fee in our country. I prefer using public transport than my own car on the way to work.

This difference in the fuel price in two nearby filling stations is surprising. Is it okay to put the price according to the filling station owner's wish? In Oman, the oil price is announced at the beginning of each month by the ministry!

That's crazy the difference in gas prices! Ours are set for each different part of the country, but you pay half a cent more per liter for full service and some stations only offer full service. Glad you found your keys!
