Words for the Day: Friday, May 31, 2019

The Words for Today (Friday) are Trust and Faith.  Useful?  Depends.  Trusting in the Universe, and having Faith in a  "Higher Power" are likely to be Useful.  But (in reverse order), Blind Faith can lose its Usefulness, especially depending on who, or what you are having Faith in.  And Trust often loses its Usefulness, when you are Trusting a  "mere person" because, in this case, Trust must be earned, and can be easily violated.  Some Trust can be Useful in this case, but with Verification, when possible.

Word for the Day: Thursday, May 30, 2019

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Gratitude.  And  *this*  Word is, not only Useful, but helps the World go around.  So what are  *You*  Grateful for today?

Word for the Day: Wednesday, May 29, 2019

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Equality.  Usefulness of Equality?  It Depends:  Equal Opportunity for All is, in my opinion,  *very*  Useful.  However, I consider "forced conformity" to be an unfortunate attempt to "legislate Equality" from outside.  I see it in offices and some schools, with Uniforms and "Dress Codes".  But, taken to its end (and if enforced  *with*  force), it ends  *quite*  badly!

Word for the Day: Tuesday, May 28, 2019

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Prudence.  So how Useful is Prudence?  (Google:  "Showing Care and Thought for the Future".  Sounds pretty Useful to me!)  But don't go overboard, lest you be labeled a Prude.

Word for the Day: Monday, May 27, 2019

The Word for Today (Monday) is Innocence.  And yes, it is  *much*  more Useful to be Innocent, than Guilty.  But note that there are more than one connotations to this Word:  Besides  "opposite of Guilty",  there is the  "Innocence of Little Children" connotation, which I like very much.

Word for the Day: Sunday, May 26, 2019

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Forgiveness.  "Forgive my Usefulness"?  (That doesn't make much sense).  But,  "Forgive my  *lack*  of Usefulness", does make sense.  And therein lies the theme, behind Education and Schools, where people can learn different ways of "being Useful".  Think about it.

Weekly Theme: Week of 5/26 - 6/01/2019

The Theme for this Week is Usefulness.  The Google Definition uses a variation of the word in its definition.  But the Definition of "Useful" includes, "able to be used for a practical purpose", which relates it to one of, last week's Themes.  Let's see how this Theme relates to this week's Words.

Word for the Day: Saturday, May 25, 2019

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Authenticity.   Practical Authenticity?   (Actually, I got good results, Googling the two words).  [or]   An Authentic Economy (as opposed to a Counterfeit one?  This reminds me of people who keep two sets of Business Records: The "real" ones, and ones for "external people to see"  [which can get you Arrested]).  But above all, be Authentic to yourself.

Word for the Day: Friday, May 24, 2019

The Word for Today (Friday) is Interpretation.  Practical Interpretation?  (Google just gave me 349,000,000 Hits on that!)  [or]  Interpreting the Economy?  (That could lead to a Lucrative Career, especially if you are good at it).  But, speaking of Careers, Interpretation, in General, is a great one, if you are Fluent in multiple Languages.

Word for the Day: Thursday, May 23, 2019

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Socialization.  Practical Socialization?  (Hmmm...)  [or]  A Social Economy?  (Why not?)  Note that there are multiple  "layers"  to Socialization.  Many Socialize Electronically  (i.e. Facebook and Twitter).  Some use Telephones a lot.  But, in my opinion, the best kind of Socialization, is  "in Person".

Word for the Day: Wednesday, May 22, 2019

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Concentration.  Practical Concentration?  (Hmmm...  Looked it up on Google.  Inconclusive).  [or]  Concentrated Economy?  (Yes:  Just drop it in a Glass of Water.  LOL!)  Back to the Word, it's said you  "Get what you Concentrate on".  So a good,  "Mindfulness Exercise",  is to  *see*  what you Concentrate on, each day, so you can take Conscious Control over it.

Word for the Day: Tuesday, May 21, 2019

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Acceptability.  Practically Acceptable?  (Hmmm...)  [or]  Acceptable Economy?  (Now you're Talking:  Make that Economy Fair, for everyone involved with it, and it sounds Acceptable, at least to me, who is neither a Lawyer or an Accountant).  But, talking about Acceptability, the most important thing (in my opinion),  is for  You to be Acceptable to  Yourself!

Word for the Day: Monday, May 20, 2019

The Word for Today (Monday) is Generosity.  A Generous and Practical Economy?  We could certainly use one in this Country.  (And I'm going out on a limb that, no matter which Country you live in, that statement likely fits!)

Word for the Day: Sunday, May 19, 2019

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Sharing.  Share my Economy?  (That's what the Homeless around me want.  But would they be so happy if, what I Share is a Budget for them?)  But sharing  (as well as cooperation),  is completely practical,  in general, though it depends on  *what*  is being shared.  (For example, if you catch a Cold, limit your sharing of it, through cleanliness and, perhaps a little distance from others.  Again, Practical).

Weekly Themes: Week of May 19-25, 2019

The Themes for this Week are Economy and Practicality.  The first of these, Economy exists in many layers:  Personal (think Budget), corporate (actually, any size business), government of any size (i.e. municipal, county, state or federal), or (at least in Science Fiction), Planetary.  Budgeting brings in the Second of our Themes, as it  Must  be Practical.  I am working on this in my own life, by the way.  But, no matter the details of your Budget, make sure it includes periods of having fun!

Words for the Day: Saturday, May 18, 2019

The Words for Today (Saturday) are Overview and Perspective.  Both of these which, together, give you a  "Big Picture View",  are quite important in understanding the Organizations around you.  This is, so you can determine which ones to support, which ones to tolerate, which ones to "run away from", and anything in-between.  Good luck!

Word for the Day: Friday, May 17, 2019

The Word for Today (Friday) is Reflection.  Do Organizations have Reflections?  (Not necessarily, but buildings owned by them do).  But consider that Reflection has two meanings:  A Deep form of Review, and what shows back at you, when you encounter Mirrors or bodies of Water.  Both of these, though different, are important.

Word for the Day: Thursday, May 16, 2019

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Study.  Organizations that Study?  (Schools, for example).  [or]  Studying your Organizations?  (Makes sense!)  But Studying your  *Involvement*  with those Organizations around you can be  *Very*  helpful.  For example, on one hand, too much involvement can burn you out, yet too little involvement (and by too many people)  might cause the Organization to go away.

Word for the Day: Wednesday, May 15 , 2019

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Absorption.  Are you Absorbing things  (i.e.  information, assistance, personnel, etc)  from Organizations, or are Organizations Absorbing from you  (i.e. Volunteer work, Fundraising)?  Is there a Balance, or is this one-sided?  What Direction?  This is an Issue on many levels.

Word for the Day: Monday, May 13, 2019

The Word for Today (Monday) is Experimentation.  Organized Experimentation?  [or]  Experimental Organizations?  (Both sound good).  Let me suggest that Life, itself is highly Experimental;  more so than we give credit for.  If you can exit your Habits, Experiments can occur.  And then the Fun begins!

Word for the Day: Sunday, May 12, 2019

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Recognition.  So of course, you should Recognize the Organizations in your life.  But you should, also Recognize the importance of  "putting more order in your life"  (something I need to do!)

Weekly Theme: Week of May 12-18, 2019

The Theme for this Week is Organization.  Interesting:  Both Google Definitions use a variation of the Word in its Definition:  "an organized body of people...", and "the action of organizing something".  So what does it mean to Organize?  "Arrange into a structured whole" of course!  So I see two, basic Definitions:  This, as well as the "...body of people".  And both of them are important to us. 

Word for the Day: Saturday, May 11, 2019

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Resolve.  "I Resolve to Protect my Resolve".  (Okay, I connected the Theme to the Word.  But, of course, this doesn't make a lot of sense, if you think it over in detail).  But one thing to keep in mind, is that Resolutions can be made at  *Any*  time, not just at the New Year.

Word for the Day: Friday, May 10, 2019

The Word for Today (Friday) is Courage.  The Courage to Protect?  (Yes, some people run away.  These two go together well).  But Courage, includes the Courage to Say "No".  There are times, when that is the most courageous act of all.

Words for the Day: Thursday, May 9, 2019

The Words for Today (Thursday) are Strength and Empowerment.  Do you know your own Strength?  Do you feel Empowered?  Can you Protect all of this?  How?  (Strength Training, of course, comes to mind.  But how about Yoga?  Meditation?  There is more to this subject, than initially comes to mind).

Word for the Day: Wednesday, May 8, 2019

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Competence.  Competent Protection?  [or]  Protecting Competence?  (Hmmm...)  But an important question would be:  "Are you Competent to be yourself?"  (The Answer might surprise you).

Word for the Day: Tuesday, May 7, 2019

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Endurance.  Enduring Protection?  [or]  Protecting Endurance?  (From what?)  Endurance Training?  Your neighborhood Gym, of course.  But, besides that?  How about Yoga?  The good news?  Like everything, this day, too will pass.

Word for the Day: Monday, May 6, 2019

The Word for Today (Monday) is Fertility.  And yes, Fertility  "Protects"  a Species.  But, for our purposes, I want to remind us all, that Fertility isn't only Reproduction.  For example, you could have a Fertile Imagination, allowing you to, say, write books or, at least, participate in online Media.  This has a possibility of being a fun day.

Weekly Theme: Week of May 5-11, 2019

The Theme for this Week is Protection.  Protect?  You mean, "keep safe from harm or injury"?  Okay.  And how about Safety?  "the condition of being protected from or unlikely to cause danger, risk, or injury"?  One key word, here appears to be Danger.  So be careful.

Word for the Day: Saturday, May 4, 2019

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Release.  And both Husbands and Wives have times when they feel overwhelmed by what is going on around them.  So what Resources can they look for?  How about the "Release Lever", generally found somewhere in the Situation itself.  Said another way, you can often find the Answer to an issue, right in the issue itself.  Just ask!

Word for the Day: Friday, May 3, 2019

The Word for Today (Friday) is Aspiration.  It is indeed, a good day to Aspire to be the best Husband or Wife you can be.  Realize that Aspiration doesn't imply Perfection but, instead, a State of Becoming.  In other words, shoot for your Personal Best.

Word for the Day: Thursday, May 2, 2019

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Contrast.  And both Husbandry and Wifery are related to lives of Contrast!  But Life is that way.  Can we control this?  Look for the  "Contrast Knob" in your Reality, to  "Adjust" it. But avoid the extremes:  Because too little Contrast can get Boring, yet too much Contrast can get, downright Scary!

Word for the Day: Wednesday, May 1, 2019

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Adaptability.  So who benefits from Adaptability more?  A Husband or a Wife?  In a Marriage, women may encounter more "variables" than men  (like children, for example).  But this is not certain for sure.  Be Flexible!
