Heroes

Our lives are filled with gifts, not the least of which are pets. Heroes in their own way.

True Nature

When the lie is revealed the world around us will collapse and we will have to deal with our true nature.

Life's not a race

Life isn't a race.... if it is, the finish line is the same for all of us and no one wins. So, just enjoy the journey.

Customer Service

It's said all the time, but really is true.  If you're in business and you really want to distinguish your company from all the rest provide excellent service.  Yes, take the extra step, even if you might not have any immediate financial gain.

It's the right thing to do, and it will pay off.  You'll gain more customers and keep the ones you have. Case in point, after replacing a hard drive I needed to reauthorize a Photoshop plugin called Noise Ninja ( which has long since been renamed and improved) but couldn't  find the keycode I needed. Taking a chance I contacted the company and let the know my situation. Fully expecting to be ignored and/or told I was out of luck and needed to shell out a small fortune and upgrade all my software. 

That didn't happen. Instead, they looked me up in their records and sent me the keycode I needed. I was thrilled, and definitely will be using their products when I do upgrade, and am in fact in the process of making several upgrades and their 

Reduces are on my list.

So, just a reminder to you business folks, the extra efforts you make are noticed and appreciated.

Be yourself

We're all unique. There's no mould that we all come from or fit into. We need to remember this, and just be ourselves. There's no harm in that.

Out of balance

I'm feeling a bit out of balance... probably because I'm being sucked into so old habits of focusing too much on software, upgrades, computer issues, and the likes, and not focusing on more meaningful and creative endeavors. Time to take a step back, take a deep breath, and relax... all things in their own time.

Believe

We need to be fierce in our belief, especially in ourselves.... and that's how we change the world.
