Keeping up

I deal with memory issues so I'll try to say something here each day. By writing in my journal it'll help me remember to write at least once a day something not work related

Patients Please

"Please Be Really Patient with yourself" I read this on a differant blog and wow did it resonate with me. I often have great expecations from myself and though I know I'm slowing down and can't do as much as I did when I was in my 20's or 30's at my current age of 60 keeping patients with myself is important. How do you deal with patients?

Getting There


 A week ago I took a brief visit to Chicago to see family 

We haven't seen each other in person for such time. Being the youngest of five siblings its important for me to be with  Mom and my sisters and brothers.  I flew into and out of Chicago O'Hare airport and there is a light rail train that gets people to all the terminals

It links people together as much as my visit with family

What links you together with whats important?

No Waiting

 What are you waiting for? Why are you waiting for something to happen? What's keeping you from making something happen?


No more delays. Opportunity doesn't knock twice. And since it's at your door right now, take advantage of it...NOW!

Outside the Circle

 How many times have you heard "Think outside the box?"   I know it's a phrase often used to inspire new thinking.  Look beyond the boarder is another way to say the same thing.  I particular like " reach beyond your circle.  

Circles have power! There's the Circle of Life.  Circle the wagons.  Will the Circle be unbroken.

I tend to live in a circle not a box. All around me are friends, neighbors, work mates, family. We 'circle' around each other in our interactions.  


I'm asking you to reach outside your Circle and expand something. Expand knowledge, awareness, abilities.   Can you wrap your thoughts around this?

Kind Gesture

 I started this blog due to reading and hearing so much non affirming messages we/I hear from the news and Facebook, Instagram, etc.  

As angry as I am at the current situation in the USA with legal changes that I don't agree with I'm reminding myself and the readers, you, that staying kind will help keep situations in proportion.


A kind thought and a kind word can mean so much. Start with kind thoughts and the rest will blossom




What are you doing to remain kind?
