A new day is dawning, mind

A new day dawns, everyday.

Without fail.

We’ll spend the day thinking.

What a gift.

Everyday.

Think like you mean it.

Before one of us starts to forget, mind

Before one of us starts forgetting, i’d like to start remembering…

  • Our first 90 days.
  • Our first impressions.
  • Our first bicycle ride.
  • Our first walk at West Chester.
  • Our first spark.
  • Our first freedom to say anything.
  • Our first realization.
  • Our first hope.
  • Our first kiss.
  • Our first wondering about ‘what if’.

Favorite favorites, mind

Favorite favorites?

The idea to think about and curate my lifetime favorites popped into my head yesterday.

Just from thinking random thoughts in the present moments.

Why?

Probably to leave behind only the most special, memorable, or remarkable things that seem valuable to me and hopefully will be valuable to our son and wife.

Kinda similar to the way we want to pass on certain possessions that we value. Keepsakes. Heirlooms. Mementos.

Most agree that ‘stuff’ has a shelf life and that one person’s treasure may not be treasure to another.

Today’s posts are me putting pen to paper and capturing this idea.

The invisible DNA of this thought-thread from yesterday…

As we prepare to die, and we think about all the things we have and how much will be useless to whomever we think we’re going to leave it to.

No fight, respect

Disney, service, speaker
These two fought at the beginning. One of them insisted he was an official Space Ranger. The other applied their wisdom to the situation. It was a happy ending, in the end: mutual respect.

New Year.

New You.

Or is it same old, same old?

Creatures of habit.

What one person sees as dynamic tension between our different perspectives, another sees it as a disagreement that naturally leads to confrontational fighting.

i see an opportunity, an olive branch if you will.

Another sees hurtful conflict and a wall.

We see what we want to see.

We think what we want to think.

Our years of experience shape our thinking.

Growth-mindset is generally a former closed-minded person who got tired of the conflicts, walls, ‘fighting’.

Closed-mindset habitually only sees the negative, the personal, the confrontation.

Calm, level-headed conversation from a foundation of love, patience, and kindness is how the most mature communities demonstrate respect amongst the neighbors.

Reminder: What you do thunders so loudly i can’t hear what you say.
