Hi there! Come on in, have a look around...
This page is simply for the curious sorts who want to know "who the heck is this person, and why do they think they have anything to say that anyone wants to hear?"
I spend my days in a windowless office primarily concerned with herding the nerds and making sure everyone is happy and has the tools they need for success and engagement in their work. There is nothing sadder than watching someone that LOATHS what they do trudge through the day -- grumbling and cranky, and infecting the office with their toxic attitude... So, I do my best to push them out of that puddle of suckage, and change the way they perceive their efforts in life, and at work.
Basically, I am a grown up cheerleader! RAH-RAH!
I am married to a Construction Geek -- yes, it is geekery that leads him to attempt to explain the intricate work of constructing a high-rise building that won't collapse.. in DETAIL.. lol. Not that I don't love hearing him get excited about his work, I just have no clue what he is talking about most of the time.
Together we are navigating life, attempting to improve ourselves and each other every day.
This little section of the internet is a simple journal of my travels through life. There is so much that we have to learn from one another, irrespective of even our differences. We learn when we are encouraged, challenged, and yes, sometimes disagreed with -- that is HOW we learn. I don't think there is a "right" and a "wrong" for everyone in the same manner -- everything is an inner "story" of what is going on. This isn't meant to be taken as my thinking there is NO RIGHTS or WRONGS. There are absolutely correct answers and actions, such as don't kill each other, don't intentional do to someone what you would not want to experience from that person's point of view (pov), be ethical and judiciously honest. For me, I try to live by those simple rules, but I observe them in that order. 1)Do not kill. No matter what I feel toward another human being, I should not ever lose my humanity to the point of ending their earthly experience. We are all mere players upon the stage, as suggested by William Shakespeare.
2) Be Considerate of others. This means more than simple kindness, or politeness. This means consider their feelings about your actions, consider how you would feel in another person sought to cause you to trip along your earthly journey. Before you act, speak, or encourage another to action, consider the consequences and affect of your action, word, and reaction. Jesus said "turn the other cheek", that means giving others the benefit of the doubt in their actions; use your "good" side, and de-vuse rather an ignite the situation. (Think about how it might be better in the world if all our leaders were considerate.)
3) Be ethical, and judiciously honest. Heed the previous rules, and this rule means you will always seek to be ethical, and kind in your honesty. Truth is important, Delivery is more so.

These three rules lead me into many a situation where I put others first, run myself ragged, wear myself out, and then... crash. I am trying to learn a balance... but, in this always GO GO GO society of ours, this is not always an easy thing to accomplish. ** Case of point: I was answering work emails during my mother's estate affairs-- which was a long, complicated, and stressful 2 weeks. And I was back to the office the next week. **
I don't have a problem with dedication, but sometimes... well, you all know how it is! Right?
I have a goofy side -- wear novelty knit hats in the winter, still LOVE sweets, and am too sincere and earnest at times. I'm a people person, but more into listening than talking... I have 3 sides -- the sweet side, the "naughty" side, and the "you don't want to see that side of me" side. I think we all do -- but, if we follow the 3 rules, then we can actually claim to be HUMAN.
Feel free to reach out if you have a question, thought, or just want to say "Howdy!" (I love talking with and getting to know people from all over this HUGE planet!) Please follow the three rules above when posting. I don't what to censor comments, but I do want people to feel free to "talk".
(1) Don't kill anyone -- especially their Spirit. (2) Be considerate of everyone. (3)Judiciously Honest and Kind.
Easy, peasy!
