Friday, August 30, 2019

Word for the Day: Friday, August 30, 2019

The Word for Today (Friday) is Interpretation.  So how do you Interpret Humor?  In some cases, the same way you would interpret anything from one Earth Language to another.  (And some say that a Joke, that works in English would fall flat in, say, Spanish.  The reverse could also be true:  A Spanish Language Joke not working, if translated to English).  But Interpreting Humor can occur on other levels too.  Investigate.

Word for the Day: Thursday, August 29, 2019

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Socialization.  Socialization, through Humor?  [or]  Socialized Humor?  (Hmmm...)  One thing about Socialization, by the way, is how many levels it exists on.  For example, we can Socialize in Person (best, in my opinion), or use Telephones (still a form of personal contact).  But then, we have all sorts of "Electronic Options", such as E-Mail, Texting, and then many Online Forums, such as Twitter or Facebook.  We are Social Beings.

The Word for Yesterday (Wednesday) was Concentration.  Concentrated Humor?  (Sure:  just add water).  But, since we get what we Concentrate on, a Sense of Humor is there, for the taking.  (Or not).  It's always your Choice.

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Sharing.  And what better thing to Share, but a Good Joke?  Seriously!

Weekly Theme: Week of August 25-31, 2019

The Theme for this Week is Humor.  Do you have a good Sense of Humor?  What does that mean, anyway?  According to Google, "a person's ability to perceive humor or appreciate a joke".  Okay, how about "joke"?  Google again: "a thing that someone says to cause amusement or laughter, especially a story with a funny punchline".  The problem in all of this?  With the major Diversity in our World, one person's Joke may actually be another person's Insult.  Just something to keep in mind.

Word for the Day: Friday, August 16, 2019

The Word for Today (Friday) is Courage.  Does it take Courage to Cooperate?  As with everything else,  "It Depends".  For example, who is the other side of this equation?  If you already get along well, with this individual, Cooperation may seem easy, and not requiring much Courage.  However, Cooperating with someone you do  *not*  get along with, while potentially Scary (depending on circumstances of course), might end up, quite rewarding.  And then, the Courage would have paid off.

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Stability.  Cooperative Stability?  [or]  Stable Cooperation?  (Hmmm...)  Now I  *will*  say that Cooperation, at least  *seems*  easier in a Stable Environment.  But it might be more  *important*,  when Stability is Lacking.

Word for the Day: Thursday, August 8, 2019

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Contrast.  Circulative Contrast?  (Hmmm...  Google gives me Medical meanings!)  Contrast, by the way, is important for Balance in Life.  Why?  Because too little Contrast in a Situation can seem Boring, yet too  *much*  Contrast can get, somewhat Scary.

Wednesday, August 7, 2019

Word for the Day: Wednesday, August 7, 2019

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Adaptability.  Adaptable Circulation?  (Why not?)  But Adaptability, also known as Flexibility, can certainly help you in your Life.  Just look at some of the Synonym Phrases, such as  "Rolling with the Punches",  "Takes a Licking and Keeps on Ticking",  or  "Adjusting to New Conditions".

Tuesday, August 6, 2019

Words for the Day: Tuesday, August 6, 2019

The Words for Today (Tuesday) are Agility and Grace.  Agile Circulation?  Circulating Gracefully?  (Hmmm...)  One thing about these two:  They don't necessarily mean  "Quick".  For example, feel free to Google  "Walking the Labyrinth".  (And, if you find one close to you, feel free to try it out!)  But one thing I have frequently heard:  You don't walk these things quickly!

The Theme for this Week is Circulation.  So what does it mean to Circulate?  According to Google, it means to "move or cause to move continuously or freely through a closed system or area".  So, with the help of an Air Conditioner, Air Circulates through a Building.  And, with the help of a Library, Books circulate through a Community.  And finally, with the help of your Heart, your Blood Circulates through your Body. 

Saturday, August 3, 2019
