When I began my health and fitness journey years ago, I could barely walk a mile without
being tired.
But I pushed myself each and every day to go a little bit further.
And over time one mile turned into 2.
Then 4.
And then 8.
And over the course of 2 1/2 years I was able to push myself to be able to swim bike and
run 140.6 miles in one day.
What once seemed impossible to me became possible.
Don't let anything stop you today.
Push yourself.
Nothing is impossible.

Episode 8 - Deciding What Truth Is - Duration: 4:53.
Scientific thought is in a constant state of flux.
Nothing stays the same for very long. New discoveries
provide more information that leads to better
understanding. This acquired knowledge then leads to
new theories and new definitions of truth.
But redefining truth does not only happen in the rhetoric
of science, it has also been occurring in every part
of daily life for a long time.
This 1967 quote from Robert L. Scott, the Director of
Graduate Studies, at the University of Minnesota,
in the Department of Speech-Communication,
provides a foundation for this constant change in the
definition of truth. He said, "Man must consider truth
not as something fixed and final but as something to be
created moment by moment in the circumstances in
which he finds himself and with which he must cope."
I'm Dr Rich Masek, the author of Ideolatry,
God Is Not Your Problem and today we will explore
the rhetoric of situational Truth. This word,
rhetoric, is not commonly used in conversation.
But you have probably heard it used in the media,
especially when dealing with political issues.
Very simply stated, rhetoric is the effective use of
communication for the purpose of persuasion.
You use rhetoric in your everyday life and I am using
rhetoric right now in this video.
Rhetoric itself is neither good nor bad and it is not
necessarily true or false. It is up to us
as individuals to determine whether or not rhetoric
is being used to deceive us or inform us of truth.
As we see in the quote from Robert L. Scott, according
to the rhetoric of science and some philosophy, truth is
something that is defined by the circumstances in
which you find yourself. In other words, this rhetoric
would have you believe that truth is not absolute,
it is relative and constantly changing.
But is this really the way that life works?
Do you have the privilege and right to change a
foundational principle of our universe, and simply
redefine Truth, anytime you like,
to suit our personal needs?
If we do define Truth in this manner, then we are
basically saying that truth is a human invention and
subject to the whims of man. But Absolute Truth was
present before the advent of humans. We humans
are simply discovering different aspects of already
existing Truth as we move through our existence.
Like science, we base our personal truth on observation
and experience. Our collective understanding grows
with ongoing discovery, but this is not a claim on what
Truth is. It is simply like uncovering a buried artifact in
an archeological site. The understanding of what has
been found changes as more and more of the artifact is
revealed. You don't really know what you have until it is
completely unearthed. It is unlikely that humans will
ever unearth all Truth. But we will continue to write
our personal Books of Truth in a relative sense that
proceeds from the situations in which we
find ourselves. The more we dig, the more
we will uncover, but our discoveries do not alter what
Truth is. We can be swayed by the rhetoric of
situational and relative truth, but Absolute Truth
has been revealed to us in the Bible by our Creator, God.
In John Chapter 17 Verse 17 Jesus says
"Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth"
Again in Chapter 14 Verse 6 He said,
"I am the way, the truth, and the life:
no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."
In John Chapter 8 Verse 32 Jesus also says
"And ye shall know the truth,
and the truth shall make you free."
Will you take the time to discover
the Truth that He has revealed?
I invite you to read Ideolatry
to explore where your Truth is founded.
You may begin to see a different view
of your version of truth.
Check it out at ideolatry.com
where you can read my Blog
and download the Free Chapter.
And I hope that you will join me for the next episode
in which we will further explore the concepts
of relativity and truth.

What is Rosh Hashanah? The Jewish New Year - Duration: 4:18.
Rosh Hashana is the start of a new year in the Jewish calendar, and a moment to take
stock of your soul. Unlike January 1st, it's serious stuff - it's said that on
this day, God takes special note of us and our behaviors, writing us into
the Book of Life.
It's a time for reflection - where have you missed the mark?
How can you grow and improve yourself this year?
Where do you need to seek forgiveness?
The last line of a poem read on Rosh Hashana - Unetanah Tokef - is a super-concise guide
to how to start the new year off right:
t'shuvah and tefillah and tzedakah. Let's break those down.
"teshuva," - the word for spiritual realignment - comes from a Hebrew root
that means return - it gets translated as "repentance" - it's more like remembering
who you truly are...and striving to return there.
Rosh Hashanah is actually a step along in the process of teshuva which starts a month
earlier on the first of Elul, and then kicks into high gear with the High Holidays
Rosh Hashana is two days long.
It's full of food, prayer and some creative rituals.
Its name means Head of the Year...and it has a lot of other names too.
The meals are a big deal - dinners and lunches.
Most memorable is the blessing over apples dipped in honey for a sweet new year.
You'll also see round challahs, sometimes with raisins, honeycake, sweet foods like
honeyed carrots, kugels and tzimmis - plus some people have a tradition of eating new fruits
- a fiesta of things to taste for the first time in the new year!
Sephardi Jews have a Rosh Hashana seder including foods with names that are puns in Hebrew
- for instance, the head of a fish gives you an excuse to say "So that
we may be like the head and not the tail."
It's like saying, "Get your head in the game!"
When you see people on Rosh Hashanah at synagogue or on the street, you can shout out
"Shana tova," which means "have a good year!"
Speaking of synagogue, if you go you'll encounter a lot of special liturgy in a book
called the holiday machzor.
This is Tefillah, connecting through prayer.
A highlight for many is singing the beloved melody Aveinu Malkeinu.
You'll also hear the Torah stories of Abraham and Sarah, Hagar and Ishmael and the famous
Binding of Isaac story
And you will hear the sounding of the Shofar.
Rosh Hashana is
a blast, literally
In the Torah, hearing the cries from a ram's horn is a key mitzvah, or commandment,
of Rosh Hashana.
The 100 shofar blasts - there are 3 types
are meant to arouse and to awaken each person.
There's a beautiful daytime ritual that is very engaging for kids called Tashlich
People toss bread crumbs into a nearby body of water to symbolically cast away old
habits and mistakes.
Rosh Hashana is also a time of year to consider how to do more Tzedakah - justice - in the
world - through community projects, taking a stand on important issues or giving charity,
say, after the High Holidays appeal, to your synagogue.
At the New Year we turn the pages in our own life's book –
be it tattered, torn or terrific.
Rosh Hashana is an auspicious moment in time that invites us to wonder, "What's the
next chapter in my life all about?"
Teruah! (blasts)
And then the big one...Tekiah Gedolah! (blast)
And then everyone claps, it's amazing!
