When one takes a seven-hour trip via car alone,
one has an opportunity to THINK and ponder one’s present standing in the
world. I recently had that opportunity.
During one stretch of rural Kentucky, I lost a
strong radio signal and found myself in silence. Having listened to several hours of talk
radio, I began to analyze current events, question the validity of the reports,
and establish a personal opinion. It
then occurred to me that my opinion is based not only upon the most current
knowledge, but rather, upon the totality of everything I believe. I then began to “whittle down” and synthesize
my belief system which I now call my
“Quantum Tenet”.
I offer it to you.

“If you don’t stand for something, you will fall
for anything.” – Gordon A. Eadie
Merry Mount is a place where I stand and where I can be true to
myself.
