Word for the Day: Wednesday, November 4, 2015

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Adaptability. You have to be adaptable, to be able to circulate. What I mean, is that, if your ideas are on topic, and speak to your audience, they can circulate from person to person. The most inflexible example I can think of, is that the idea is not even given to anyone, unless there are "conditions". Feel free to continue this discussion. Flexible and adaptable ideas? Why not?

Words for the Day: Tuesday, November 3, 2015

The Words for Today (Tuesday) are Agility and Grace. An agile circulatory system circulates blood gracefully. An agile group of city librarians also gracefully circulate books, in the neighborhood.

Monday, November 2, 2015

Word for the Day: Monday, November 2, 2015

The Word for Today (Monday) is Acceleration. Accelerated Circulation? Of course: This works in more than one way, including in the body, where more oxygen goes, through your blood to your vital organs, including your brain. But I also see this, when public libraries expand (i.e. hiring more people, and purchasing more books). That way, more books circulate through the community, and faster.

Words for the Day: Sunday, November 1, 2015

The Words for Today (Sunday) are Patience and Tolerance. My favorite connotation for this Theme is Libraries. And, if you have a popular book (and insufficient copies), you would need to be patient, to get your turn, to take it out. Or be tolerant, about accepting a "substitution" (whether close or not).

Weekly Theme: Week of November 1-7, 2015

The Theme for this Week is Circulation.  Also known as Distribution, this word has multiple uses, including (for only two examples), circulating blood throughout a human body, or circulating books through a county, in the United States (or another nation, that uses the concept of "county").  As a "humble employee" of the Akashic Records, I prefer the Library analogy for this Theme.

Word for the Day: Saturday, October 31, 2015

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Acknowledgement. I hereby acknowledge all the Celebrations I've been to, in my lifetime. Even when they didn't "seem" to go well, I learned something, from participating in them. Now, today's a good day to celebrate: Halloween. Have fun, everyone!

Friday, October 30, 2015

Word for the Day: Friday, October 30, 2015

The Word for Today (Friday) is Kindness. Observing acts of kindness, in our World is ABSOLUTELY something to celebrate. And this works the other way around also, as it's possible to conduct celebrations, in a kind way.

Thursday, October 29, 2015

Word for the Day: Thursday, October 29, 2015

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Encouragement. And I encourage Celebration, as long as it's done in ways, outlined via other Words from this Week, especially Thoughtfully (yesterday's) and Kindly (tomorrow's).

Wednesday, October 28, 2015

Word for the Day: Wednesday, October 28, 2015

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Thoughtfulness. So, when we celebrate, are we doing so thoughtfully? Hint: If there is an overdose of alcohol involved, probably not. So think, before speaking and/or acting.

Tuesday, October 27, 2015

Word for the Day: Tuesday, October 27, 2015

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Support. If you have a "support group", that is definitely something to Celebrate. However, I contend that, if you are part of the support group for somebody else, that can ALSO be something to celebrate. We definitely need to support each other, as well as our World.

Monday, October 26, 2015

Word for the Day: Monday, October 26, 2015

The Word for Today (Monday) is Comfort. To personally "be" in comfort is something to celebrate. To watch the news, about other areas of the world (or even the country I live in, USA), that are NOT in comfort, perhaps not. But, no matter your circumstances, celebrate acts of courage, generosity and, in general, friendly kindness, when you see them.

Sunday, October 25, 2015

Word for the Day: Sunday, October 25, 2015

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Nourishment. And what could be better, than to celebrate a tasty, and nourishing meal?

Weekly Theme: Week of October 25-31, 2015

The Theme for this Week is Celebration.  People like to celebrate.  That is pretty obvious.  But do we understand what it actually means to celebrate?  For one thing, it's supposed to be "pleasurable".  If so, then why do some of our major holidays come across as stressful?  For example, just the day after the "celebration" of gratitude, on the day of Thanksgiving, people go out to stores, early in the morning to shop for another holiday (Christmas), that doesn't even take place for another month!

My take?  Yes, celebrate, but don't go overboard.  And have fun!

Saturday, October 24, 2015

Word for the Day: Saturday, October 24, 2015

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Prosperity. Prosperous revelations? Or Revelations about prosperity? Now I see a LOT of the latter, often from the business community, as people try to pass along, what I will call "attempted revelations", about how you can "become prosperous", if you would only learn how to "effectively sell" the products of the company in question.

Friday, October 23, 2015

Word for the Day: Friday, October 23, 2015

The Word for Today (Friday) is Liberation. Liberation FROM Revelation? Don't think so. But revelations about liberation might work, especially if the method of liberation is "surprising".

Thursday, October 22, 2015

Word for the Day: Thursday, October 22, 2015

The Word for today (Thursday) is Wisdom. Revelation about Wisdom? Or how about a Wise Revelation? Both sound fine to me.

Wednesday, October 21, 2015

Word for the Day: Wednesday, October 21, 2015

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Impartiality. A Revelation about Impartiality? An Impartial Revelation? I'll take the second, to mean not letting your own issues get in the way of the "new, surprising fact(s)" you are "disclosing".

Tuesday, October 20, 2015

Word for the Day: Tuesday, October 20, 2015

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Consequence. You could probably say something, along the lines that every Revelation comes with a Consequence. But I submit that, if you have the talent for revelation, and deny (or ignore) it, that is likely to have consequences also.  Word to the wise.

Monday, October 19, 2015

Word for the Day: Monday, October 19, 2015

The Word for Today (Monday) is Elimination. Eliminating Revelation? Of COURSE not. But eliminating what stands in the way of "revealing surprising facts" [one meaning of Revelation] sounds right to me.

In general, Elimination is as important as acquiring, especially in the human body function of digestion.

Sunday, October 18, 2015

Word for the Day: Sunday, October 18, 2015

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Self-Reliance. It's considered a "truism", that "we can't do it all, by ourselves", but the fact that we CAN do a fairly good BIT by ourselves is a Revelation. Developing self-reliance is a benefit, because you don't know when you might be left, without friends or family to help you.
