Word for the Day: Thursday, April 30, 2020

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Socialization.  A Socialized Economy?  Socialism?  (Oh my, I don't want to go down that Rabbit Hole tonight).  But Practical Socialization?  That I can go with.  Is Facebook Practical Socialization?  What do you think?

Word for the Day: Wednesday, April 29, 2020

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Concentration.  A Concentrated Economy?  (Yes:  Just add Water!)  One thing I  *have*  heard, many times, is that  "You Get what you Concentrate on".  What that means to me, is that you have control, over what you get.  Keep that in mind, when Concentrating.

Word for the Day: Tuesday, April 28, 2020

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Acceptability.  So when is an Economy Acceptable?  One way is if it's Practical.  But you know where Acceptability is most important?  When you are Acceptable to Yourself!

Word for the Day: Monday, April 27, 2020

The Word for Today (Monday) is Generosity.  A Generous Economy?  (The best kind!)  But know that Generosity helps the World go around.  Definitely something to be practiced.

Word for the Day: Sunday, April 26, 2020

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Sharing.  And, of course, if we live in a Practical Economy, we should want to Share it.  Right?  (These aren't always Givens).  But people are in a better condition to Share, in a good Economy.

Weekly Themes: Week of 4/26 - 5/02/2020

The Themes for this Week are Economy and Practicality.  I guess, that the best connection between these two is that, the Economy you live in is best, if it is a Practical one.  But otherwise, these two Words are typically used differently.  They are both, common enough that I will let you look them up, for a change. 

Words for the Day: Saturday, April 25, 2020

The Words for Today (Saturday) are Overview and Perspective.  And yes, whether you are gaining the  "Big Picture View"  (which is what Overview and Perspective give you) of the Organizations in your lives or, if Organizing your Life gives you a Big Picture View of what is happening, these are both quite Important.  And face it:  We all need a bit of Perspective, especially with what is occurring right now!

Word for the Day: Friday, April 24, 2020

The Word for Today (Friday) is Reflection.  An Organized Reflection?  (A Corporation wants me to pay to find out).  But know that you Reflect who you are, every place you go.  So Reflect well.

Word for the Day: Thursday, April 23, 2020

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Study.  Organized Study?  (Certainly:  Schools come to mind).  But notice hoe many Topics can be Studied?  So many, in fact, that it pays to be Selective.  For example, if you are young enough to be planning for College, notice that your Major and Minor is only, about two Topics.  If you choose carelessly, it's hard to change Majors, without losing Months, or even Years of College Education.  So Choose well.

Word for the Day: Wednesday, April 22, 2020

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Absorption.  Absorbing an Organization?  (Might make a good Movie).  But actually, Absorption is a Learning tool, such as the Immersion Method of learning a Language.  So be like a Sponge for a day.  What could be more fun?

Word for the Day: Tuesday, April 21, 2020

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Review.  Organized Review?  (Did a Google Search, with a Bunch of Hits, many of them confused).  But Life, in general, includes a lot of opportunities for Review.  On the quick side, Review your Shopping List, to see if your trip to the Store was complete.  However, there are more Detailed Review Opportunities in Life, with the most Complex example being Life Review, that people report, after a Near Death Experience.  Most Reviews are somewhere in the middle.

Word for the Day: Monday, April 20, 2020

The Word for Today (Monday) is Experimentation.  Experimenting with Organizing,  say,  a Living Environment  (i.e. a House or Apartment) can,  actually be fun.  If you are stuck someplace, try to see how many Arrangements can be made of your Home Layout.  And this also applies to your Computer Desktop.  It can be fun to Experiment.

Word for the Day: Sunday, April 19, 2020

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Recognition.  This can go two ways:  Recognize the Organizations that help you, and Recognize your own  (possible) efforts to Organize, what's around you.  And, since we, at this Unusual Time, are likely to have, either Very Little Time, or Too Much Time, learn to Organize it.  (Google  "Time Management",  for example).

Weekly Theme: Week of April 19-25, 2020

The Theme for this Week is Organization.  So what does it mean to Organize?  According to Google, it means to "arrange [something] into a structured whole; order".  And it fits right now, since I have an unexpected amount of Free Time around my Apartment.  So, why not "arrange it into a structured whole"?  But we are not through!  For if I ask Google to "Define Organization", it also comes up (in part) with "an organized body of people with a particular purpose".  And note that that Purpose can include a Business or Firm (Profit or not).  Also could be a Society or Agency.  I could go on, but take a look at the Synonyms for that Google Definition I brought up.  And you are, finally free to Organize your Fun.

Word for the Day: Saturday, April 18, 2020

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Resolve.  "I Resolve to Protect"?  [or]  "To Protect my Resolve"?  (Both make, only Limited Sense).  Now, the place where we all hear about a variation on Resolve, "Resolutions", is at the New Years.  But keep in mind that Resolutions can be made at any time of the Year.

Word for the Day: Friday, April 17, 2020

The Word for Today (Friday) is Courage.  Protecting Courage?  [or]  The Courage to Protect?  (What?)  I guess, depending on what you are Protecting, Courage may need to be involved.  (Especially if, what is being Protected is not popular).  But why not have the Courage to be Yourself?

Words for the Day: Thursday, April 16, 2020

The Words for Today (Thursday) are Strength and Empowerment.  Do you Know your own Strength?  Do you Feel Empowered?  Because both of these are Quite Helpful in Protecting yourself and your Personal Environment.  And, when you are  "fully strong",  you are in a wonderful place to help those around you.  (But it needs to go in that direction!)

Word for the Day: Wednesday, April 15, 2020

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Competence.  Are we Protecting our Competence?  [or]  Are we Competent to Protect?  (Wow!  Definitely different!)  Now, if you are Competent to be Yourself,  that should apply to other things in your Life,  making that the best,  First Start.

Word for the Day: Tuesday, April 14, 2020

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Endurance.  Enduring Protection?  (Huh?)  [or]  Protecting Endurance?  (Better!)  So how does one Develop, Maintain and  (yes)  Protect Endurance?  Health Clubs and Gyms come to mind, of course,  but I have another suggestion:  Yoga.  Just something to think about.

Word for the Day: Monday, April 13, 2020

The Word for Today (Monday) is Fertility.  Fertility, Protecting the Human Race?  Yes, as long as it's  "performed"  enough, but not  "too much".  (In other words, enough to keep Humans on the Planet, but not too much, which leads to Over Population).  But remember that there are other Connotations for Fertility, such as Having a Fertile Imagination.  And  *that*  would need to be Protected also!

Word for the Day: Sunday, April 12, 2020

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Stability.  Stable Protection?  [or]  Protection from Stability?  (Huh??)  But a Stable Environment makes Protecting  "things"  easier.  So I guess these go together after all.

Weekly Theme: Week of April 12-18, 2020

The Theme for this Week is Protection.  Interesting:  Looking this up, I find it has its own, rather detailed Wikipedia Page.  And Google says that, to Protect is to "keep safe from harm or injury".  Sounds like a good Theme for this Week!

Word for the Day: Saturday, April 11, 2020

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Authenticity.  An Authentic Husband?  (Look for the Certificate of Authenticity,  like you get with those Plates they sell you on TV).  But this brings up a  *much*  more important point:  Be Authentic to Yourself.  That's what counts the most!

Word for the Day: Friday, April 10, 2020

The Word for Today (Friday) is Aspiration.  I am not comfortable with this Week's Theme  (as it seems to single out Men),  but there is nothing to stop one from Aspiring to be the Best Husband,  the Best Wife,  the Best Farmer (if the original Animal Husbandry context applies),  or, quite simply,  Aspiring to be the best Person you can be.

Word for the Day: Thursday, April 9, 2020

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Contrast.  And yes, both life on a farm, as well as life in a modern Marriage includes lots of Contrast.  Some parts of both can be Routine (and sometimes, actually kind of Boring), yet other activities of both can be Complex (and, sometimes even a bit Scary, such as if somebody gets injured).  But don't worry about if you don't, currently fit into, either a Family or a Farm:  Life itself includes lots of Contrast.

Word for the Day: Wednesday, April 8, 2020

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Adaptability.  So who are more Adaptable (or Flexible)?  Husbands or Wives?  (I'm not going to, even  *try* to answer that, as I have never been married).  But there  *is* something I  *have* noticed about people in general:  The Flexible person tends to Adapt to their Surroundings.  The Inflexible person likes to  *ask* their Surroundings to Adapt to him/her.

Words for the Day: Tuesday, April 7, 2020

The Words for Today (Tuesday) are Agility and Grace.  Agile and Graceful Husbands?  (Probably the best kind).  But this doesn't leave women out, as everybody can go for these two Traits.  Besides Yoga, google  "Walking the Labyrinth",  and see if any of those are, in range of where you live.

Word for the Day: Monday, April 6, 2020

The Word for today (Monday) is Acceleration.  Accelerated Husbandry?  (Sounds weird:  Looking it up on Google got me Selective Breeding.  LOL!)  But you can work, just with the Word, Accelerating your Spiritual Evolution or, even, Accelerating Intellectual Learning, especially if you are stuck at home.  But, if you  *do*  whip out your Automobile, watch out for excessive Acceleration, lest you get a Speeding Ticket!

Words for the Day: Sunday, April 5, 2020

The Words for Today (Sunday) are Patience and Tolerance, both of which are, highly needed in  *BOTH*  Contexts for this Theme:  Opposite of Wife in a Relationship, and someone handling Livestock on a Farm.  Good luck, everybody!

Weekly Theme: Week of April 5-11, 2020

The Theme for this Week is Husbandry.  This is a confusing one.  According to Wikipedia, it is "Animal husbandry", and is the "branch of agriculture concerned with animals that are raised for meat, fibre, milk, eggs, or other products. It includes day-to-day care, selective breeding and the raising of livestock".  Talk about complicated!  And another context for this is "a married man considered in relation to his spouse".  And, lest Women feel completely left out, there also exists "Spiritual Wifery".  Funny, I am the incorrect Gender for the latter, but I think I would prefer it.

Word for the Day: Saturday, April 4, 2020

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Acknowledgement.  And yes, Acknowledging those who Cultivate our Food helps.  But it also helps to Cultivate Acknowledgement in General, like Acknowledging those who help you in any way.  And remember:  It takes Knowledge to Acknowledge.

Word for the Day: Friday, April 3, 2020

The Word for Today (Friday) is Kindness.  Cultivating Kindness?  [or]  Being Kind to Cultivators?  (Both, I hope!)  Now, Kindness is one of my favorite Words  (along with Gratitude).  It is Absolutely something to Cultivate, both individually and in the World.  Be Kind!

Word for the Day: Thursday, March 2, 2020

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Encouragement.  Encouraging Cultivation?  [or]  Cultivating Encouragement?  (Not the same!)  But one thing to keep in mind:  Be Selective of what you Encourage, as you'll have to live with it!  Also, keep in ind that it takes Courage to Encourage.

Word for the Day: Wednesday, April 1, 2020

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Thoughtfulness.  Thoughtful Cultivation?  (Why of course!)  And we can also Cultivate Thoughtfulness, by Cultivating Thinking,  before we Speak or Act.
