The* other day, I received an email from a woman who said I was inspiring. It was a nice thing to hear albeit a little surprising. I’ve never taken the time to ponder whether I’m inspirational. I simply do what I am meant to do and hope that some people enjoy it.
Productivity
Take Time to Listen
When I first started running, I had to have my iPod. Music was the only way to distract myself from what I considered to be a torturous activity. I eventually began to enjoy running, but my iPod companion remained a constant. I sometimes would refuse to go for a run if my iPod were dead or on its deathbed.
Productive Meditation
I recently finished reading Patrick Rhone’s Getting It Straight. The book’s a delightful read, and I couldn’t begin to discuss it in detail. It covers too many topics: you, me, and everything else. Several ideas found within the book captured my attention, though. One of them was meditation.
The Things I Keep
I should subtitle this post “A Case of Copy and Paste.” I have learned, after spending some time with my two sites’ databases and after having someone else look at those databases, that I am not going to be able to import my old posts into my new site. I could let those posts remain on the old site – I probably will for at least a little while longer – but I would like to have them on the new one.
Something Has to Give
I suppose I must have a good memory because my roommate has threatened to siphon it so that she can better remember details. She needn’t worry; as long as we’re roommates, I basically am her live-action memo pad. Unfortunately, my usually indefatigable memory has started to fail.
