Whether online or off, if you can make a practice of connecting people in a useful way, there’s a value there that will prove helpful to your goals in life. Here are some ways to add value and be helpful, online and ...

“We cannot tell what may happen to us in the strange medley of life. But we can decide what happens in us -- how we can take it, what we do with it -- and that is what really counts in the end. How to take the raw stuff of life and make it a thing of worth and beauty -- that is the test of living.” ~Joseph Fort Newton

And again...I thought I would get through at least, oh, a week before I got something else in the mail worth posting about, but no. One day, that was how long I had to wait. This particular mailing, another post card from a church, is actually addressed to my husband, Justin. His name is pre-printed on that nifty coffee cup, and another note is printed on the back with his first and last name. Am ...

Apart from being an absolutely outstanding personality, the great Leonardo da Vinici was famous for something, that got lost among his other brilliant and impressive talents like painting, science, inventing, music, etc. - namely for his very simple and wise fables, which he wrote in a similar vein to those of Aesop. Almost five centuries after they were first penned some of Leonardo’s fables still exist and are told in the Tuscan countryside. Few people ...

Trust is a difficult subject. How do we trust someone? It’s pretty difficult in real life. We tend to trust people we know well or people that are trusted by people that we know well. We gain trust by interacting with people, by seeing consequent behavior. Reputation is an important factor too. Without realizing we use body language and all kinds of senses to build trust. Online this is even harder. We miss most senses ...Shared by amzolt (6) bhc3 (31) David (85) dobata (234) louisgray (107) Mark Dykeman (24) Mike F (425) Ozgur Alaz, Marketallica (38)Contribute commentNaked In Eden Blog - Robin Easton (0) permalink

A weekend trip to the country brought me to a park with a wishing fountain. I looked into the blue water and was pleasantly surprised to see so many coins, most of them quarters. With gasoline still sky high and food prices as high as ever, it was a nice to see that people will still take time to make a wish. Of course wishes used to only cost a penny. I’ve always been a ...Shared by amzolt (6)Contribute comment
