Word for the Day: Monday, August 31, 2020

The Word for Today (Monday) is Acceleration.  Accelerated Prophecy?   (Hmmm...  3.3 Million Hits on Google!)   There  *is*  one thing to be careful of, with Acceleration and I've spoken about it before:  Excessive Acceleration of a Motor Vehicle can result in, either a Traffic Ticket or an Accident and so, in my opinion, is not recommended.

Words for the Day: Sunday, August 30, 2020

The Words for Today are Patience and Tolerance, both of which are strongly needed, if you were to attempt a  "Career"  in Prophecy.  Fortunately, it's not in the Top 10 List of popular Career Choices.

Weekly Theme: Week of August 30 to September 5, 2020

 The Theme for this Week is Prophecy.  I am growing annoyed with Google's Definitions:  "the faculty, function, or practice of prophesying".  Seriously, folks, you don't Define a Word with a Derivative of the same Word!  So I tried "Define Prophet", getting a bunch of Religious Definitions.  But when I scrolled down to "Kid's Definition", I finally find, "a person who predicts the future".  (There definitely can be humor in looking these Words and Themes up!)  But there is an issue in this final "Definition":  Only  *One*  Future to Predict?  In the Michael Teachings (which can be Googled), there are plenty of Discussions about the Many Realities we live in.  (For example, we have a choice of what to do:  For example, a choice between two Careers, one local, but another, perhaps with a larger Salary, but several States away.  So, after an agonizing period of time, we choose one of these Careers.  Somewhere in your Psyche, the other Choice is explored).  So we need to be careful, not to Limit the usage of the word, "Prophecy".

Word for the Day: Saturday, August 29, 2020

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Acknowledgement.   And this goes in two directions:   Acknowledging People with Disabilities  (who, often find Creative ways to express, around the Disabilities),  and also Acknowledging People who  *assist*  those, with Disabilities in Expressing around those Disabilities.   One example would be Screen Readers, which verbally read, what is written on a screen.  Likewise, an Application that listens to what's around you and Prints it on the Screen.

Word for the Day: Friday, August 28, 2020

The Word for Today (Friday) is Kindness.  And, of course, be Kind to everyone, not just people challenged with Disabilities.   And, note that this includes being Kind to yourself!

Word for the Day: Thursday, August 27, 2020

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Encouragement.  I used to hear,  "Encourage that which is Good".  It seems obvious, but actually makes sense.   In other words, Encourage that, which you want to live with, long term.

Word for the Day: Wednesday, August 26, 2020

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Thoughtfulness.  Thoughtful?   Full of Thought?  Definitely be that way with those around you, who are Challenged with Disabilities.   But don't stop there, as this is  *always*  a good trait to have.

Word for the Day: Tuesday, August 25, 2020

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Support.  And, definitely people, challenged with Disabilities need Support.   But, guess what?  We all do!  And we also get opportunities to Give Support, through our Lives.  Find your Support Group.

Word for the Day: Monday, August 24, 2020

The Word for Today (Monday) is Comfort.  And finding Comfort, when Challenged by a Disability might itself be a Challenge, depending on the Details of the Disability.  But don't stop looking.

Word for the Day: Sunday, August 23, 2020

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Nourishment.  And a wonderful Service to provide, for a person with a Disability would be to help him/her with a Nourishing (and hopefully Delicious) Meal.

Weekly Theme: Week of August 23-29, 2020

 The Theme for this Week is Disability.  Definition from Wikipedia:  "A disability is any condition that makes it more difficult for a person to do certain activities or interact with the world around them".  One thing missing from this Definition is what a Disability "looks like".  There are so many different types of them, and some people with Disabilities don't look different from the people around them.  Also, a Disability may only affect *part* of a person's Life, with other parts working quite well.  For example, a Deaf person may see Extraordinarily well.  

Word for the Day: Saturday, August 22, 2020

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Prosperity.  Prosperity from Diplomacy?  Yes, as it is a great Career Choice.  It helps a lot of people, and so often is paid well.  Need I say more?

Word for the Day: Friday, August 21, 2020

The Word for Today (Friday) is Liberation.  Liberation  *from*  Diplomacy?  (Please, no!)  But well-placed Diplomacy could Liberate a region from, say, a War.  Liberate yourself!

Word for the Day: Thursday, August 20, 2020

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Wisdom.  A Wise Diplomat?  (Hope so!)  So, how  *does*  one Develop and Maintain Wisdom?  People often think about specific Books to read and, perhaps, Weekend Seminars to attend.  But something else comes to mind:  Life Experience.  In other words, Wisdom can come, slowly and surely, while you are Living your Life.

Word for the Day: Wednesday, August 19, 2020

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Impartiality.  An Impartial Diplomat?  (The Best Kind though,  Sadly hard to find).  The Problem is, that People grow up with Opinions.  And those Opinions, even when they are  "supposed"  to be in the  "background"  do exist.  It is right to Strive for this Trait, but know that it's not an easy one.

Word for the Day: Tuesday, August 18, 2020

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Consequence.  Are there Consequences for Diplomacy?  Of Course!  But consider the Alternative:  More Severe Consequences for, when Diplomacy fails.  For example, what are the Consequences of War?

Word for the Day: Monday, August 17, 2020

The Word for Today (Monday) is Elimination.  Eliminate Diplomacy itself?  (Please don't!)  But careful Diplomacy can help Eliminate some rather unpleasant things, such as Wars.  And who wants War?

Word for the Day: Sunday, August 16, 2020

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Self-Reliance.  A Self-Reliant Diplomat?  (The best kind!)  But always remember that there are Other People around you, whatever your Profession.  Balance is the answer.

Weekly Theme: Week of August 16-22, 2020

 The Theme for this Week is Diplomacy.  Diplomacy?  Google:  "the profession, activity, or skill of managing international relations".  But it doesn't end there, because any of us may be required, at any time, to "manage Personal Relations", between those we know.  How successful we are, is another story.

Word for the Day: Saturday, August 15, 2020

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Expansion.  Expanded Dialogue?  (Expanding Communication is usually Helpful).  As mentioned recently  (and I can relate), Physical Expansion around the Middle of the Body, due usually to Excessive, Delicious Snacking can be a Problem.  And, as also stated, Exercise can be an answer, as well as limiting the Snacking.  (Also, sometimes, substituting can be helpful, such as when I switched from Potato Chips to Celery Stalks).  Finally, Expanding your Level of Fun can help.

Words for the Day: Friday, August 14, 2020

The Words for Today (Friday) are Trust and Faith.  Two people, embarking on a Dialogue, especially if using the "non-verbal"  Intercourse method  *better*  have some sort of Trust between them.  If not, then this situation is likely what is reported as  "some sort of Abuse (all the way from Seductive Behavior, through different levels of Coercion, to the extreme of Rape)".  The key, is how the word  "No"  is handled.

Word for the Day: Thursday, August 13, 2020

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Gratitude.  Communication of Gratitude?  (Of Course!)  And Gratitude is Great to Communicate, as it helps the World go around.  Be Grateful!

Word for the Day: Wednesday, August 12, 2020

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Equality.  Communication of any kind  (and Connotation) is best, if both sides approach it from an Equal Stance.  And this situation can be understood, often by examining Communication, when it is  *not*  between Equals.  Just look at our News, for example.

Word for the Day: Tuesday, August 11, 2020

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Prudence.  Prudent Intercourse?  (I sure  *hope*  so!)  And good Dialogue can be used, to help Intercourse be Prudent.  Note that there is a Degree to Prudence.  For example, you want to have  "enough"  Prudence in your Life.  But not too much:  Don't go Overboard and become a Prude!

Word for the Day: Monday, August 10, 2020

The Word for Today (Monday) is Innocence.  When I queried Google on  "Innocent Intercourse",  I was barraged with a bunch of Court Cases, and other stories about when Intercourse was often  *not*  Innocent.  Obviously, the other side of the Theme must come in, good Communication, to keep things, as Innocent as they can be  (including just saying "No").  Be Innocent.

Word for the Day: Sunday, August 9, 2020

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Forgiveness.  These go together this time, as Intercourse (especially if not Consensual) can require  *much*  more than, simply an Apology.  But good Communication  (i.e. Dialogue)  can be a Step in the direction of Mutual Consent.  So Communicate Well!

Weekly Themes: Week of August 9-15, 2020

 The Themes for this Week are Intercourse and Dialogue.  And, I would suggest that Intercourse (the Connotation that people usually think of) is a "Non-Verbal" form of Dialogue.  You don't need Words (though they frequently help a LOT), but there is, Definitely an "Emotional Dialogue".  

But keep in mind that there are other Connotations of Intercourse, such as "Social Intercourse".  And note that Google has 62 Million Hits on this Phrase.

But, however you do it, Communicate well!

Word for the Day: Saturday, August 8, 2020

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Authenticity.  Authentic Humor?  (Look for the Official Certificate!)  But the most important thing, in my Opinion, is to be Authentic to Yourself.

Word for the Day: Friday, August 7, 2020

The Word for Today (Friday) is Interpretation.  A Humorous Interpretation?  [or]  Interpreting Humor?  (Both?)  So, if you Interpret Humor, what Language would you Translate it to?  For example, which Language is the funniest?

Word for the Day: Thursday, August 6, 2020

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Socialization.  Socialized Humor?  (1.7 million hits on Google!)  Yesterday, Concentrated Socialization was brought up, which I find Humorous.  (But how about Concentrated Socialism?  Or Concentrated Capitalism?  I wouldn't want to  "Add Water"  in either case!)

Word for the Day: Wednesday, August 5, 2020

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Concentration.  Concentrated Humor?  (Indeed:  What  *would*  you get if you add Water?)  But you know what  "they"  say:  "You Get What You Concentrate On".  You can certainly do well, by including Humor in that  "Concentration List".

Word for the Day: Tuesday, August 4, 2020

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Acceptability.  Acceptable Humor?  Actually, it's easier to describe  "Unacceptable Humor",  an example of which is to deliberately trip someone, laugh, and then say to anybody that complains:  "What's wrong?  You don't have a Sense of Humor?"  Be Acceptable, especially to yourself.

Word for the Day: Monday, August 3, 2020

The Word for Today (Monday) is Generosity.  A Generous Sense of Humor?  (The Best Kind!)  But Generosity is Awesome on its own, as it helps the World go around.  And be Humorous, as you are Generous. 

Word for the Day: Sunday, August 2, 2020

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Sharing.  "Sharing your Sense of Humor?"  (Of course!)  And notice, that I Share that, which I never want to Lose.

Weekly Theme: Week of August 2-8, 2020

The Theme for this Week is Humor.  Sense of Humor?  I get the best meaning from, just a Phrase out of what Google says:  "ability to perceive humor".  Because, when someone "tells a Joke", not everyone may see it as such.  But, what I see as, even *more* important, is to see Humor, where it's not intended:  To see Humor in everyday life.

Words for the Day: Saturday, August 1, 2020

The Words for Today (Saturday) are Overview and Perspective.  The  "Big Picture"  view of Mediation?  (Of course, as long as we don't have to Mediate a Dispute between Overview and Perspective).  One more thing about Mediation:  It makes a good Career Choice.
