“The moment we label a person or situation, we put on blinders to all evidence that contradicts our diagnosis.” – Ori & Rom Brafman
I came across this quote from a friend’s blogand felt that I should pass it along with you! I did a little more research and found that it was from the Brafman’s book SWAY: The Irresistible Pull of Irrational Behavior. I think I may have to pick up a copy and see what else I get from it. If you have read it let me know what you think!
Over and out!
Lo!
So I thought I’d share a thought or two before I go MIA…
I’m not exactly sure why, but I’ve been thinking a lot about…well a lot of things. One of them about friends. The thing is I haven’t been thinking about my friends that I now, but friends from my past. Don’t get me wrong though, I love my friends and do think about them often as well! Anyway, so for whatever reason, I’ve been thinking about how I communicate with my friends, and vice versa. I am a card guru, and love sending random cards to my friends just because, there really doesn’t have to be a reason at all! They love receiving the cards just as much as I enjoy sending them! My friends that I have currently are good about communicating with me, either through e-mail, snail mail, etc. I unfortunately have experienced my fair share of friends that lack the know how of communicating. Now, I’m not saying that for every card one should be sent back, but a “thank you” really goes a long way. Anyway, I just thought that I would get that off my chest, and hopefully help out a few people with some relationships maybe…I don’t want to leave on a sour note though…so I want to leave this with a HUGE thank you to all of my friends who have supported me, and continue to love and support me through this next chapter of my life! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Over and out!
Lo!
Well, today is my last official day of break so I will only be posting sporadically. With the next couple of months I will be taking organic chemistry I, general chemistry II, and principles of biology. So as you can imagine, any “free” time that I’ll find, will be spent studying, sleeping and/or eating. I’ll post updates from time to time, but they will be very brief. So until next time…
Over and out!
Lo!
This past week I have been on my break from school, so I have been taking in some great R&R. Anyway, so last night I watched In Her Shoes, which I’ve seen before, but it had been a while. I forgot how much I liked that movie! I stayed up watching it until early into the morning, but was actually paying attention to it, which is surprising being that it was about 2:30 in the morning before it was over! At the very end of the movie Maggie, Cameron Diaz, reads a poem by E. E. Cummings called, I Carry Your Heart with Me. I absolutely love this poem, and thought I would share it with you! So here you go!
Over and out!
Lo!
I carry your heart with me (I carry it in
my heart) I am never without it (anywhere
I go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
I fear no fate (for you are my fate,my sweet) I want
no world (for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart
I carry your heart (I carry it in my heart)
So, I have been using blogger, which I’ve been happy with, but thought I’d check out another site and see what I thought about it, and if I wanted to change things up. Many of my friends use blogger, as well as wordpress. Anyway, so we’ll see what I think of this new one and go from there. Feel free to give me your thoughts as well…
Over and out…
Lo…
Gettin' the Down Lo!
