  Exasperating. Infuriating. You can’t live with them and you can’t live without them! Then again… why would you want to? As you traverse your life’s path there are many who will populate it. Corny? Probably, but it is still true. Some of the people will become friends, some only acquaintances. Some you will work with and […]

  You can live a superlative life. Why be average (whatever that means or how it is defined)? Surely mediocre is not something to be pursued? Then again, remember that ‘extra’ and ‘super’ are defined individually as well. Superlative basically means reaching for or stretching yourself for that which is just beyond your finger tips. Yes

  Too soppy a start? Probably but, you know, sometimes that’s precisely how you feel or what you want your reader to see/sense. I’m a believer that life is a journey. A marvelous, adventuresome, exciting, over hill and dale opportunity to discover and learn. That’s the spice in life  and what it is all about or at least should

  Too cavalier a designation? Perhaps but in our society there are few that wouldn’t understand the word and what it was describing – something totally unacceptable but not to the category of totally evil. However, it is these little yuko’s that trip us up. We would never succumb or engage in bad behaviors but we

  I’m afraid that I had fallen prey to the prevailing thinking that… it’s what I do, not who I am. Stuff and nonsense. What you do is who you are. I think I became somewhat enamored with that phrase because of my math background which posited that the whole is greater than the sum

  Depending on the subject, we all turn to an ‘expert’ that we trust to provide their opinion on the particular subject in order for us to make sense of and decide on our position on the subject. Thus, the particular source is critically important. However since the source is always a human (even abstract

  And, if your answer is, ‘no one’, then I suggest you take stock of you and your behavior. My belief is that we all are trying to please someone. It’s really OK as long as the one you are attempting to please is worth your effort. You see, we choose who we will please.

  What a great word! The word can be used in so many ways and in so many situations and, contrary to many words, everyone understands what you are trying to do – lump disparate items together without really identifying what they are or do… or even if they are related in any fashion. It’s where you can ‘put’

  “I know what you feel/think/etc.” Quite honestly, I cringe when I hear those words. I try very hard not to use them, but I’m guilty too. There’s no way to actually know what another person is feeling or thinking. However, I also realize it’s an attempt to make them feel that they are not all alone,

  Where do you have your eyes? Are you looking forward? Or are you turning around and looking at where you’ve been? Or are you looking inward at something very personal? Or are you looking at nothing in particular? Perspective is extremely personal. No one can have precisely the same perspective as the next person because they
