Man, why is it easy to want to be right all the time? It's such a trap. At the time, it feels so wonderful and it feels like you are making a point, but what you aren't realizing is the destruction that it is bringing along with it. People are hurt, relationships are misunderstood and broken.
I guess rightness turns into wrongness.
Today, I hope to handle my emotions and experiences with a correct understanding and empathy for others, and be willing to make an apology whether deserved or not.
I think that this is true rightness.

Banks
Banks really know how to rake your money in. You think, what a great service they offer, free money holding- and yet, then you see the little scams they try to pull with you. Yikes. I had a business account open as I sold books on amazon. All of a sudden, I realized that my account was gradually declining. Now, I don't make that much money at all selling books, so I wondering what was happening. The bank, which I will state is Associated Bank, was taking out $18 dollar service fees because I didn't suppress paper statements, which I did request to have suppressed at the original opening of the account. Then, I got another email saying that if I had a daily incoming amount of $2,500 coming in, then there wouldn't be a charge. I only make a couple cents on some books, and I certainly don't even sell them everyday. So, that's a far ways off. So, nevertheless, I'm very upset at my bank and I'm going to close my business account. I'm also writing this, so that you are all very careful when you sign up for an account to keep a careful eye over it, before they steal all your money and then there's nothing you can do.

SU Wisconsin Trout Ice Fishing Derby
The big ice fishing tournament was January 31st, 2015! I had the awesome privilege of watching the sunrise that morning. It was so beautiful! I had never before had the opportunity to watch the sunrise from the very nothingness of the great Lake Michigan to an amazing horizon of light lighting up the entire world! It was by far the most special and amazing thing I had ever seen!
Of course, we didn't end up catching any fish, but the amazingness of the sunrise kept me going strong all day!
Here's some shots of the day:

The great bait who sacrificed their lives!

The beautiful sunrise appearing
I love the large chunks of ice on the railing!
