In my humble opinion.
Are you firmly planted in your beliefs? Or are you open to a different viewpoint?
My IMHO blasts to the point. Precisely.
Sometimes my view is moderate. Sometimes it is powerful.
Whatever my thoughts on the topic, you can be sure that I’ll be honest.
I don’t usually sugarcoat, but I aim to be respectful.
You may disagree with my opinion, and that’s okay.
I don’t always concur with what others say, either.
If you want to learn more about my thoughts on a topic, or if you’d like to challenge with your own, I’d love to hear from you!
Let’s start a dialogue!
Loyalty has its rewards
“Too many people are thinking of security instead of opportunity. They seem more afraid of life than death.”
—James F. Byrnes
Getting what you pay for
"Things that matter most should never be at the mercy of things which matter least." —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Uncertainty and Stress
"Stress is an ignorant state. It believes that everything is an emergency." - Natalie Goldberg
As I wrote this post, I wondered about my greatest stressors and determined that I have only one: uncertainty.
A Difference of Meaning
“Let us make a special effort to stop communicating with each other, so we can have some conversation.”
Working Efficiently
“Anxiety is caused by lack of control, organization, preparation, and action.”
Communicating for Understanding
“I am only responsible for what I say, not for what you understand.”
—Juan Pablo Galavis
Have you ever said something only to hear it again from someone else but in the wrong context?
I have. It feels devastating at first. But then it does not.
Same or Different?
“‘What I admire most about your art,’” Albert Einstein said, ‘is its universality.
You do not say a word, and yet . . . the world understands you.’
‘It’s true,’ replied Chaplin: ‘But your fame is even greater . . .
the world admires you when nobody understands you.’”
Freedom and re-invention
I know I’m in the minority when it comes to “pushing back” on pandemic measures, so please don’t contact me to tell me what I already know.
Don’t get me wrong: I know there’s a killer virus on the loose, and precautions should be taken. However, I believe that governments and media have gone above and beyond in communicating the fear to ensure compliance.
Are we in this together?
“We’re in this together.”
“We’re all in this together.”
“We’ll get through this together.”
How many times have you heard these statements over the past several months?
If you’re anything like me, you’re wondering how anyone can say something like this with a straight face.
