The Power of Words

Sometimes we hurt people with words on purpose, sometimes we don’t even realize. The world teaches us to bottle the pain. Maybe we should change our attitudes.

Chengdu quake

My friend in China right now was teaching in Chengdu when the quake hit. I posted her link to her blog here before since she is such a wonderful read. She recently posted her firsthand experience of the quake. Highly recommended reading to truly appreciate not only what we have, but the power of the earth to wake us up, and the strength of humanity when we choose to work together.

Too much choice?

This is a lengthy but fascinating lecture on our Paradox of Choice. This hits home for me, and brings up more of my thoughts on living a more simple life. Someday I want to have a ranch, and open it to others to learn how to relax.  Relaxation is something we have to learn. huh.

Just don’t ask me to make a quick decision about dinner at a restaurant.
