Word for the Day: Saturday, June 14, 2014

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Expansion. This is one to be a bit careful of. For spiritual expansion is generally quite welcome. But expansion around the waist area, perhaps not so much.

Friday, June 13, 2014

Words for the Day: Friday, June 13, 2014

The Words for Today (Friday) are Trust and Faith. These can both be welcome, but be careful, because trust must be earned, and faith should not be blind.

Thursday, June 12, 2014

Word for the Day: Thursday, June 12, 2014

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Gratitude. This is one of my favorite Words (along with Kindness). Both of these are welcome, just about any time, and in both directions (giving and receiving).

Wednesday, June 11, 2014

Word for the Day: Wednesday, June 11, 2014

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Equality. Equal opportunity is welcome. In my opinion, forced conformity, not so much.

Tuesday, June 10, 2014

Word for the Day: Tuesday, June 10, 2014

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Prudence. A certain amount of Prudence is welcome (lest you say or do something "dumb"), but be careful to not go overboard, and "turn into a Prude".

Monday, June 9, 2014

Word for the Day: Monday, June 9, 2014

The Word for Yesterday (Monday) was Innocence. Is it welcome to be innocent? If you are in a court room, yes. Otherwise, the innocent are usually just being themselves, and are only innocent, until someone approaches them.

Yes, I'm late.  Do you care?  Sorry about that. 

Sunday, June 8, 2014

Word for the Day: Sunday, June 8, 2014

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Forgiveness. And forgiveness can be SO welcome, especially if the original "incident" was minor.

Weekly Theme: Week of June 8-14, 2014

The Theme for this Week is Welcome.  And this works in both directions:  You can welcome other people, or events, and other people can welcome you.  And it can feel quite good to be welcome.

Saturday, June 7, 2014

Word for the Day: Saturday, June 7, 2014

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Authenticity. Authentic partnership? (As opposed to a "counterfeit" partnership?)

Yes, it's possible to get involved with people who are NOT telling the truth, which is the antithesis of authenticity. Be careful!

Friday, June 6, 2014

Word for the Day: Friday, June 6, 2014

The Word for Today (Friday) is Interpretation. If you are partners with someone, and don't share the same language, interpretation is, of course, quite important. But, in my most humble opinion, both people should learn each other's language. One reason for that, is that both people can be fluent in both languages, which helps with career choices, because translation skills are highly sought out.

Thursday, June 5, 2014

Word for the Day: Thursday, June 5, 2014

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Socialization. How does this fit with our theme (Partnership)? I believe the partnership goes smoother, if the members bond with each other, which is helped by social gatherings. (And if the only contact is via Facebook and, say, email, that's a hindrance).

Wednesday, June 4, 2014

Word for the Day: Wednesday, June 4, 2014

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Concentration. Also known as focus, this is a way of accomplishing things in life. And when more than one person is involved (i.e. via Partnership), concentration can become quite powerful.

Tuesday, June 3, 2014

Word for the Day: Tuesday, June 3, 2014

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Acceptability. Acceptable partnerships? I can think of some I'd question, such as those, dedicated to criminal activities. ("Ocean's 11", anyone?)

Monday, June 2, 2014

Word for the Day: Monday, June 2, 2014

The Word for Today (Monday) is Generosity. This helps the world go around, and is to be encouraged. And it goes well with our Theme (Partnership), as they work best, when all parties are generous with each other.

Sunday, June 1, 2014

Word for the Day: Sunday, June 1, 2014

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Sharing.  Do partners share with each other?  If they want to be successful, they do!  And successful partnerships share with the world at large, too.

Weekly Theme: Week of Jun1 1-7, 2014

The Theme for this Week is Partnership.  There's even a Wikipedia page for this, useful for showing how many varieties of Partners can exist, from human relationships, organizations and businesses.  I think the main point is that we can all be partners, even if in an informal way, with each other.  Would a regular Facebook Friend qualify, for example?

Words for the Day: Saturday, May 31, 2014

The Words for Today (Saturday) are Overview and Perspective. This is the Cliffs Notes, or Executive Summary of Reality. You don't need to "suffer through" the "entire process" of [topic in question], if you can read [and/or Google] it. But I WILL caution you that experience gives more wisdom than, say, book reading.

Friday, May 30, 2014

Word for the Day: Friday, May 30, 2014

The Word for Today (Friday) is Reflection. This is both a deeper version of Review (see last Tuesday), and what you see, when you look into a mirror. Since the first variety can be a form of relaxation, it can definitely help with conventional schooling.

Thursday, May 29, 2014

Word for the Day: Thursday, May 29, 2014

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Study. And one comment I have about this is being selective. What subjects excite you? Those subjects can actually be fun to study. (Of course, if in a conventional school, you might not be able to choose all of your subjects).

Wednesday, May 28, 2014

Word for the Day: Wednesday, May 28, 2014

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Absorption. And this can be an excellent way of learning. For example, with foreign languages, it's called "immersion training", where, after any introductions, the only language spoken is the one being taught. So have fun, and be like a sponge!  :-)
