BID N’ BUY AUCTION - Save the Date Sunday, December 7th at 1PM in the MPR.
No time like the present to clean closets, garages, or any other storage areas to donate unneeded merchandise to the auction. Just call or text Gary Huniu at 714-855-6787, to schedule an appointment for the merchandise pickup. Men’s Club relies on congregants support to make the auction a success. If you frequent certain vendors or have family or friends with a business, Men’s Club can provide tax deductible documentation, to serve as a receipt for their donation. Everyone can participate in the auction, either by in person attendance or by proxy bidding. Contact Gary Huniu at 714-855-6787 to obtain proxy bidding details.

SCHEDULES
Schedules beg the perennial question. Are schedules a blessing or a curse? The answer is both. Quite obviously, schedules are a necessary evil to maintain a sense of order in our daily lives. If we were free to do or go wherever we please at any time, you would frequently experience severe degrees of discomfort. For example, if a doctor did not maintain an appointment book, floods of people could accumulate in the office, causing lengthy wait times to see the doctor. Another example is how the lack of a schedule would negatively impact public transportation. It would create bottlenecks at bus stops, train platforms, or airport gates. Too few vehicles at any given time to accommodate a mass gathering of passengers. More importantly is the negative chain reaction of events that would be triggered by a lack of a schedule. Without schedules for transportation, you would be late for work or school, and your tardiness would be disruptive to your co-workers or classmates. The operational efficiency of businesses and educational institutions would be greatly diminished.
It would be human nature that schedules would prove to be an anathema to our psyche, and an irritant to our body and soul. The overriding effect of schedules generates a seemingly constant push pull process. You feel like a ping pong ball going back and forth across the net. We know eventually we must face and meet our responsibilities, thereby the pull effect. However, the desire can grow stronger at times to break away from the schedule, the push effect. Fortunately, there are ways to lessen the degree of swings generated by the push pull process. Simply, a brief time out to take a walk around the block to relax and reach an equilibrium. Or a day off from your normal routine. If necessary, there are temporary leaves of absence, vacations or extended vacations. You perhaps can rely on family, friends, neighbors in the form of carpools or ride share services to get your children to their after school activities. The ultimate panacea is retirement. At that stage you are enabled not to be controlled by time, but to become a master of time.
However, until you reach retirement, others do depend upon you, to use schedules as an organizational tool, and to keep the world moving in a positive direction.
Shalom!
