  • 10 suggestions for success – from my friend Feisty Female’s blog

    1. Do something that you are passionate about. It must be worthy of your time, talent and energy.

    2. Take care of those you love – they are your priority.

    3. Be accepting of people you encounter and be nice to them – it costs nothing.

    4. Be bold, courageous and adventurous – trying and doing new things is good for your spirit.

    5. Be decisive and have an opinion – a state of oblivion should not be acceptable.

    5. Be forgiving – bitterness eats away and it most definately doesn’t add to your charm.

    6. Be optimistic, enthusiastic and cheerful. It impacts those around you.

    7. Loyalty and commitment – always a sign of character.

    8. Deliver on your promises. In actual fact exceed peoples expectations. Keep in mind that is sucks being disappointed.

    9. Don’t be over-critical on everything and everyone around you – it’s purely a questions of perception and you aren’t perfect either.

    10. Get moving and make things happen!

  • the Meme is Andrew Johnston

    memes
    out here in the blogosphere, we’re quick to call a jig a meme. copy it, paste it, tag some peeps and forget about it. sharp! it’s a meme…

    yeah well no fine. so let’s call it a blog-meme.
    or meme2.0

    but it’s not a real meme. remember my post about Mark Twain’s meme?
    that’s the ticket. it’s like a brain worm. it gets into your mind and stays – endlessly looping.
    its stuck.
    its stuck.
    its stuck.

    Andrew Johnston’s requiem is a real meme.

    he’s been singing in my head since I saw his video on cb’s blog.
    i’ve played it for my parents – who’ve been humming it ever since.
    i showed the video to a neighbor. she sings it at work.
    i sing/hum the requiem.
    i watch Andrew over and over again.
    i’ve posted his video on my facebook profile.
    i pray for him every evening at bed time.
    i’m blogging about him again!

    let him sing some more!!!

    Andrew: record and release the track on the web – your magic is changing the world! your voice makes me happy. your song melts frozen hearts. from what i’ve seen – your song reconnects people to the Divine. sing, Andrew. sing!

    to the Brits: vote for him!
