Words for the Day: Tuesday, December 31, 2019

The Words for Today (Tuesday) are Agility and Grace.  Healthy Agility?  Graceful Health?  Well actually, both of these help you towards a State of Health.  And Yoga helps one, to develop and maintain both of these.  But there's something else to consider.  Google "Labyrinth near me",  and see if anything comes up.  (You may also Google "Walking the Labyrinth", for more general information).  And whatever you do, have fun!

Monday, December 30, 2019

Word for the Day: Monday, December 30, 2019

The Word for Today (Monday) is Acceleration.  Accelerated Health?  (I'll take it!)  [or]  Healthy Acceleration?  On the Second one, I consider Accelerated Spirituality and, even Accelerated Intellect to be, at least usually Healthy.  But what could be Unhealthy would be Excessive Acceleration of a Motor Vehicle.  Be Careful!

Sunday, December 29, 2019

Words for the Day: Sunday, December 29, 2019

The Words for Today (Sunday) are Patience and Tolerance.  And both of these will, absolutely help you to be Healthy!  For example, if you are Patient, with allowing a minor body ache to go its way on its own, this can be healthier than relying on Pain "Remedies", that you find at Pharmacies.  Likewise, Tolerance helps, when your body feels "mostly okay".  Let's not be Perfectionists now!

Weekly Theme: Week of December 29, 2019 to January 4, 2020

The Theme for this Week is Health.  What does Google say about this?  Fair enough:  Health is "the state of being free from illness or injury".  I would have preferred to know what Health *is*, rather than what is is *not*.  Like, for example, what does it feel like to be Healthy?  And can you define that, without telling us what it feels like to be Sickly Ill, and then saying that Health is "Not that"?  Anyway, this is what we are up against this week:  Paying attention to our Physical Bodies.

Saturday, December 28, 2019

Word for the Day: Saturday, December 28, 2019

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Acknowledgement.  Acknowledging Service?  (Of Course!)  And this is important, as it Encourages those, who provide the Service to keep doing it.  One more thing about Acknowledgement?  It takes Knowledge to Acknowledge!

Friday, December 27, 2019

Word for the Day: Friday, December 27, 2019

The Word for Today (Friday) is Kindness.  This works well with our Theme in two ways:  [1]:  The Kindness of providing Service, and  [2]:  Being Kind to others, when  *they*  are providing Service.  And you know what people say, about Random Acts of Kindness.

Thursday, December 26, 2019

Word for the Day: Thursday, December 26, 2019

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Encouragement.  Encouraging Service?  (But of Course!)  But there is also a Service of, general Encouraging, where we Encourage people to Be Themselves, and to, quite naturally do a Great Job of it!  I also Encourage you all to Have Fun.

Wednesday, December 25, 2019

Word for the Day: Wednesday, December 25, 2019

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Thoughtfulness.  Thoughtful Service?  [or]  Being Thoughtful to those, giving Service?  (Both!)  And I think it is, quite appropriate that This Word came up on, such a highly observed Holiday as Christmas.  In other words, be Thoughtful to those you are with, whether they are observing this Holiday or not.

Tuesday, December 24, 2019

Word for the Day: Tuesday, December 24, 2019

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Support.  Supporting Service?  [or]  Service of Support?  (Not the same, and the second one doesn't make a lot of sense to me).  But when some lives a life of Providing Service to others, why  *not*  Support them?  And that  *does*  make sense!

Monday, December 23, 2019

Word for the Day: Monday, December 23, 2019

The Word for Today (Monday) is Comfort.  Service of providing Comfort?  That's our Hotel and Motel Industry, among other things.  Also, anyone who sells Mattresses may fit this category.  But just letting someone know that you care, when talking to them may give them a bit of Comfort.  Also, the ability to Listen helps a great deal.

Sunday, December 22, 2019

Word for the Day: Sunday, December 22, 2019

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Nourishment.  And what better Service, than to provide a Nourishing (and, hopefully Delicious) meal to someone in need?  Be good!

Weekly Theme: December 22-28, 2019

The Theme for this Week is Service.  This is a good week, since many people devote their lives to Service to Others.  And some of this Week's Words fit also, since we can, at all times (not just this week), Encourage them, Show Kindness to them, and Acknowledge them.  Yes:  Some Themes work well with their Corresponding Words.

Saturday, December 21, 2019

Word for the Day: Saturday, December 21, 2019

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Prosperity.  If you Complete your Projects, does that make you Prosperous?  (Not necessarily, but a pattern of never completing anything, is even  *less*  likely to lead to Prosperity).  Complete Completion!

Friday, December 20, 2019

Word for the Day: Friday, December 20, 2019

The Word for Today (Friday) is Liberation.  Liberation from the need to Complete anything?  (Heck no.  LOL!)  But how about Liberation from, what stands in the way of Completing Projects?  For example, there's that Oldie but Goodie, Procrastination.  A good question to ask at Critical Times:  "If not now, When?"  And Good Luck!

Thursday, December 19, 2019

Word for the Day: Thursday, December 19, 2019

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Wisdom.  Complete Wisdom?  (Yes!)  [or]  Wise Completion?  (As opposed to Unwise Completion?)  So what do you do, to gain Wisdom?  People talk about reading the "right" books, as well as attending the "right" weekend seminars.  Some of those may, actually help (though they depend on the details).  However, in my opinion, actual Life Experience has a  *lot*  more to do with how Wise you become.

Wednesday, December 18, 2019

Word for the Day: Wednesday, December 18, 2019

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Impartiality.  Complete Impartiality?  (As opposed to Incomplete Impartiality?)  Anyway, Impartiality is something that I believe is hard to achieve, because we all have opinions.  And that goes, even (or perhaps especially) in the case of our News.

Tuesday, December 17, 2019

Word for the Day: Tuesday, December 17, 2019

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Consequence.  Are there Consequences, to Completing Projects?  Of Course.  But I submit, that there are  *also*  Consequences, to Failing (or worse, Refusing) to Complete Projects.  And these Consequences can be more severe at times.  Be a Complete Person!

Monday, December 16, 2019

Word for the Day: Monday, December 16, 2019

The Word for Today (Monday) is Elimination.  And this fits well with our Theme, as we want to Eliminate Obstacles, that stand in the way of Project Completion.  What are some of these Obstacles?  One of my personal favorites  (ahem!)  is Procrastination.  But there are others also, such as when people around you don't like the details of the Project you are working on.  For example, I have had, more than once, to change my Circle of Friends, so as to stay with a particular Project.

Sunday, December 15, 2019

Word for the Day: Sunday, December 15, 2019

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Self-Reliance.  Complete Self-Reliance?  (Probably better than Incomplete...)  Self-Reliance is, of course, important, but  *do*  remember that we are not alone in this World:  Others are there to help.

Weekly Theme: Week of December 15-21, 2019

The Theme for this Week is Completion.  According to Google, Completion is "the action or process of finishing something".  Fair enough:  I did ask.  So how many projects have you started, but have not Completed?  (Unfortunately, I lost count!)  But if something stands out, this may be the week to take action!

Saturday, December 14, 2019

Word for the Day: Saturday, December 14, 2019

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Expansion.  Expanded Vision?  (Why not?)  But use your Vision to see what else is Expanding.  For example, be careful of too much Expansion around your Middle, due to excessive, delicious Food.

Friday, December 13, 2019

Words for the Day: Friday, December 13, 2019

The Words for Today (Friday) are Trust and Faith.  Trust my Visions of Faith?  (Oh well...)  These are both good Words, but be Selective, as Trust must be Earned, and Faith should not be Blind.

Thursday, December 12, 2019

Word for the Day: Thursday, December 12, 2019

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Gratitude.  Visions of Gratitude?  Of Course!  Gratitude for Visions, that I get when I Meditate?  That too!  Gratitude for everybody who helps me?  Certainly!  I recommend a Grateful Attitude to everybody reading this.

Wednesday, December 11, 2019

Word for the Day: Wednesday, December 11, 2019

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Equality.  Visions of Equality?  [or]  An Equal Vision?  (A somewhat abstract combination).  I see two meanings for Equality, that  "seem"  similar, but can be  *Quite*  different, especially if you end up at the wrong end of one of them.  Equality can mean, either  "Equal Opportunity",  or  "Forced Conformity"  (like, for example, an overly restrictive Dress Code).  I embrace the first, but warn people against the second.

Tuesday, December 10, 2019

Word for the Day: Tuesday, December 10, 2019

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Prudence.  A Prudent Vision?  (Likely the best kind!)  Prudence?  "Showing care and thought for the future"?  Sounds good to me.  Just don't go overboard and turn into a Prude.

Monday, December 9, 2019

Word for the Day: Monday, December 9, 2019

The Word for Today (Monday) is Innocence.  An Innocent Vision?  (As opposed to a Guilty one?)  [or]  Visions of Innocence?  (These two are not the same, by the way).  On the second one:  When I think of Visions of Innocence, I see Visions of Innocent Children.  And how about Visions of Innocent Fun?

Sunday, December 8, 2019

Word for the Day: Sunday, December 8, 2019

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Forgiveness.  "Forgive my Vision"?  (Why? Do you think I need Glasses?)  But note that not all Vision goes through your Eyeballs.  For example, what is your Vision of the Future?  Does  *it*  need Forgiveness?

Weekly Theme: Week of December 8-14, 2019

The Theme for this Week is Vision.  Some think of this as a synonym for Eyesight, but it is more.  For example, you can have a Vision, during a Meditation.  And some people complain about the quality of their Vision, even giving us a "scale of quality" like, for example, having 20-80 Vision.  So how is yours?

Saturday, December 7, 2019

Word for the Day: Saturday, December 7, 2019

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Authenticity.  An Authentic Union?  (With a Certificate of Authenticity, like you get with those Plates from the Franklin Mint?)  And, while we're at it, be Authentic, yourself.

Friday, December 6, 2019

Word for the Day: Friday, December 6, 2019

The Word for Today (Friday) is Interpretation.  So  *how*  would one Interpret a Union?  (Funny:  When I asked Google, I got 70,200,000 hits, with the top result, from the International Brotherhood of Boilermakers, being how to interpret Contract Language, for a Labor Union).  Remember, however, that there are Countless types of Unions, with the ones you are part of, being the ones you most want to Interpret. Strange combination today.

Thursday, December 5, 2019

Word for the Day: Thursday, December 5, 2019

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Socialization.  And Unions  *need*  to be Socially Connected.  For example, a Married Couple is a two-part Union, with all kinds of Social Connections.  Add Children, and you get a Family, also a Union with, even more Social Connections, including ones found in School Settings.  So be Social.

Wednesday, December 4, 2019

Word for the Day: Wednesday, December 4, 2019

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Concentration.  A Concentrated Union?  (Yes:  Just add water!)  But we  *do*  get what we Concentrate on, so Concentrating on the Best Unions That we Belong to, makes  *lots*  of sense.  And, while you're at it, also Concentrate on having fun.

Tuesday, December 3, 2019

Word for the Day: Tuesday, December 3, 2019

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Acceptability.  Acceptable Union?  Perhaps understandable better, if we "define" an "Unacceptable Union".  So here goes:  A Union can be two people, like for example, a Man and a Wife  (Holy Matrimony).  So where can one of those Unions be Unacceptable?  How about a pair,  "United" in Crime?  (Example:  Bonnie and Clyde)?  So, as you can see, the Bar is, kind of low, for  "Acceptable Two-Person Unions".

Monday, December 2, 2019

Word for the Day: Monday, December 2, 2019

The Word for Today (Monday) is Generosity.  A Generous Union?  (Probably the best kind).  And remember that Generosity helps the World go around.  Random acts of Generosity?

Sunday, December 1, 2019

Word for the Day: Sunday, December 1, 2019

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Sharing.  Sharing the Union you belong to?  Yes.  Why not?  Another way of looking at this, is that we Share our Connections.

Weekly Theme: Week of December 1-7, 2019

The Theme for this Week is Union.  Do you deal with Unions?  A portion of you handle some of your finances, through a Credit Union.  Also, you might consider the United States to be a "Union of States".  But is a Union United?  Even more basic, what does Google say?  "the action or fact of joining or being joined"?  Fair enough.  Let's see where this takes us, this week.
