I was going through more old files and uncovered a story that was used for a group discussion I still enjoy hearing people's responses to.
This story is about a fictional couple. To keep it flexible and open we'll call them Pat and Kelly since I know men and women with both names.
Pat and Kelly were both single people looking for love when they ( Read more... ) -
Hey!! Hands off my holy man!
I had a great lunch. I was able to pick up a book I reserved on Adlerian psychology. This is part of the continuing question, 'do I really want to go back to school?'. Took it to Sawatdee to sit down for a more relaxing longer lunch than my usual. I got to start reading. When I was just about done eating most of the lunch rush had left and a ( Read more... ) -

"till the scum rise no more"
So an early morning walk to local farmer's market provided some tasty looking vegetables and raw honey I needed to try making my own mead.

I'm looking for folks to weigh in on the above question with hobbies, interests, and work for those of you lucky enough to have a job doing what you love. With your hobbies/interests, do you pursue it because you enjoy doing it, because of an end result, or what combination of both?
Maybe this is also dependent on the length of time it would take ( Read more... ) -

Perspective on comparison
Recently I went with a group of friends to see Walking Shadow’s show of ‘Fat Pig’, which was very thought provoking. After the show the group hung around the theater and talked about the show.

The enigma
Und doch, 's will halt nicht gehn:
ich fuhl's, und kann's nichtverstehen;
kann's nicht behalten,

nor yet forget it;
and if I grasp it wholly,
I cannot measure it!
