@@@@@His birthday dinner, tooWhat a
difference @@@@@His birthday dinner, tooWhat a difference between this birthday feast and the one for her cousin Patricia! Scarlett looked at her grandfather's skeletal ramrod body and his self-satisfied impassive face, and she despised him for the way he was tormenting her auntsBut even more she despised them for tolerating historturesThey don't have a shred of gumption How can they just sit there like that and take it? Sitting silently at her grandfather's table, in the gracious pink room in the handsome pink house, she seethed with loathing for everything and everyoneI'm as bad as they areWhy on earth can't I just speak up and tell him how nasty he's acting? I don't have to talk French to do it, he understands English as well as I doI'm a grown woman, not a child who mustn't speak until spoken to What's wrong with me? This is downright sillyBut she continued to sit quietly, her back not touching the chair, her left hand in her lap at all timesJust as if she were a child on her best company behaviorHer mother's presence was unseen, not even imagined, but Ellen Robillard O 'Hara was there, in the house where she'd grown up, at the table where she had so often sat as Scarlett was sitting, with her left hand resting on the starched linen napkin across her lap And, for love of her, for need of her approval, Scarlett was incapable of defying the tyranny of Pierre Robillard 3 She sat for what seemed an eternity, watching Jerome's stately slow servicePlates were replaced again and again by new plates, knives and forks by fresh knives and forks; it seemed to Scarlett that the feast would never endPierre Robillard consistently tasted and rejected each carefully selected and prepared dish that was offered himBy the time Jerome brought in the birthday cake, the tension and misery of Scarlett's aunts was palpable, and Scarlett herself was barely able to sit still in her chair, so urgent was her longing to escapeThe cake was coated in glossy swirled meringue that had been sprinkled liberally with silver drageesA silver filigreed bud vase on top held curling fronds of Angel Hair ferns and miniature silk flags of France, the Emperor Napoleon's army, and the regiment in which Pierre Robillard had servedThe old man grunted, perhaps with pleasure, when it was placed before himHe turned his hooded eyes on Scarlett"Cut it," he said in EnglishHe hopes I'll knock over the flags, she thought, but I'm not going to give him that pleasureAs she accepted the cake knife from Jerome with her right hand, with her left she quickly lifted the shining bud vase from the cake and put it on the tableShe looked directly into her grandfather's eyes and smiled her sweetest s | | Saturday, January 1st, 2011 | | 1:15 pm |

Look at Katie's eyes here in the lightThey're changing from blueI thought they'd turn brown like Rhett's because she's the spit of himBut I can see the first little specks, and they're green She's going to have my eyes!" Scarlett nuzzled the baby's neck "You're Momma's girl, aren't you, Katie O'Hara? No, not Katie Anybody can be a KatieI'm going to call you Kitty Cat, with your green eyes She lifted the solemn baby up to face the housekeeperFitzpatrick, I'd like to introduce you to Cat O'Hara Scarlett's smile was like sunlightRosaleen Fitzpatrick felt more frightened than at any time in her lifehe enforced idleness of her convalescence gave Scarlett many hours to think, since her baby spent most of the day and the night sleeping, exactly like all other infants 1 Scarlett tried reading, but she had never cared for it, and she had not changed in that wayWhat had changed was what she thought about First and foremost, there was her love for CatOnly weeks old, the baby was too young to be responsive, except in reacting to her own hunger and the satisfaction of Scarlett's warm breast and milkIt's loving that's making me so happy, Scarlett realizedIt has nothing to do with being lovedI like to think Cat loves me, but the truth is she loves to eatScarlett was able to laugh at the joke on herself Scarlett O'Hara, who'd made men fall in love with her as a sport, as an amusement, was nothing more than a source of food to the one person she loved more than she'd ever loved in her lifeBecause she hadn't really loved Ashley; she'd known that for a long time | | 6:55 am |

There was a shuffle of feet beside me; my eyes moved instinctively to find the threat, and I saw Uncle Jeb standing over meHe had one hand half stretched out toward me, but he hesitated, looking awayI raised my head an inch, stifling another moan, to see what he saw Jared was walking toward us, and his face was the same as those of the barbarians in the desert–only it was beautiful rather than frightening in its furyMy heart faltered and then beat unevenly, and I wanted to laugh at myselfDid it matter that he was beautiful, that I loved him, when he was going to kill me? I stared at the murder in his expression and tried to hope that rage would win out over expediency, but a true death wish evaded me Jeb and Jared locked eyes for a long momentJared's jaw clenched and unclenched, but Jeb's face was ca | | 7:02 am |

@@@@@The tang lingered
in my mouth, @@@@@The tang lingered in my mouth, inescapable I ate quickly, this time saving the soup for lastMy stomach reacted more happily today, accepting the food with better grace My body had other needs, though, now that the loudest ones had been satedI looked around my dark, cramped holeThere weren't a lot of options visibleBut I could barely contain my fear at the thought of speaking up and making a request, even of the bizarre but friendly Jeb I rocked back and forth, debatingMy hips ached from curving to the bowled shape of the cave He was looking at me again, his face a deeper color under the white hair than usual “You've been stuck in here for a while,” he said“You need to… get out?” I nodded “Don't mind a walk myself His voice was cheerfulHe sprang to his feet with surprising agility I crawled to the edge of my hole, staring out at him cautiously “I'll show you our little washroom,” he continued“Now, you should know that we're going to have to go through… kind of the main plaza, so to speakI think everyone will have gotten the message by now Unconsciously, he stroked the length of his gunMy bladder was so full it was a constant pain, impossible to ignoreBut to parade right through the middle of the hive of angry killers? Couldn't he just bring me a bucket? He measured the panic in my eyes–watched the way I automatically shrank back farther into the hole–and his lips pursed in speculationThen he turned and started walking down the dark hall “Follow me,” he called back, not looking to see if I obeyed I had one vivid flash of Kyle finding me here alone, and was after Jeb before a second passed, scrambling awkwardly through the opening and then hobbling along on my stiff legs as fast as I could to catch up | | 7:03 am |

@@@@@I think he's stopped the burning of holes in @@@@@I think he's stopped the burning of holes in his pockets As I said in the section "Pay Yourself First," if a person cannot master the power of self-discipline, it is best not to try to get richFor while the process of developing cash flow from an asset column in theory is easy, it is the mental fortitude of directing money that is hardDue to external temptations, it is much easier in today's consumer world to simply blow it out the expense columnBecause of weak mental fortitude, that money flows into the paths of least resistanceThat is the cause of poverty and financial struggle I gave this numerical example of financial intelligence, in this case the ability to direct money to make more money If we gave 100 people $10,000 at the start of the year, I gave my opinion that at the end of the year: 80 would have nothing leftIn fact, many would have created I greater debt by making a down payment on a new car, refrigerator, TV, VCR or a holiday16 would have increased that $10,000 by 5 percent to 10 percent4 would have increased it to $20,000 or into the millions We go to school to learn a profession so we can work for moneyIt is my opinion that it is also important to learn how to have money work for you I love my luxuries as much as anyone elseThe difference is, some people buy their luxuries on creditIt's the keep-up-with-the-Joneses trapWhen I wanted to buy a Porsche, the easy road would have been to call my banker and get a loanInstead of choosing to focus in the liability column, I chose to focus in the asset column As a habit, I used my desire to consume to inspire and motivate my financial genius to invest Too often today, we focus to borrowing money to get the things we want instead of focusing on creating money One is easier in the short term, but harder in the long termIt's a bad habit that we as individuals and as a nation have gotten intoRemember, the easy road often becomes hard, and the hard road often becomes easy The earlier you can train yourself and those you love to be masters of money, the betterMoney is a powerful force |
