Dear God

Please untie the knots that are in my mind,

Remove the have nots,

the can nots and the do nots

that I have in my mind.

Erase the will nots,

may nots,

might nots that may find a home in my heart.

Release me from the could nots,

would nots

and should nots that obstruct my life.

Dear God,

I ask that you remove from my mind,

my heart and my life all of the "am nots"

that I have allowed to hold me back,

especially the thought that I am not good enough.

Amen

Just take the first step...

In The First 10 minutes: 10 teaspoons of sugar hit your system. (100% of your recommended daily intake.) You don’t immediately vomit from the overwhelming sweetness because phosphoric acid cuts the flavor allowing you to keep it down.

20 minutes: Your blood sugar spikes, causing an insulin burst. Your liver responds to this by turning any sugar it can get its hands on into fat. (There’s plenty of that at this particular moment)

40 minutes: Caffeine absorption is complete. Your pupils dilate, your blood pressure rises, as a response your livers dumps more sugar into your bloodstream. The adenosine receptors in your brain are now blocked preventing drowsiness.

45 minutes:

>60 minutes:

>60 Minutes:

This will all be followed by a caffeine crash in the next few hours. (As little as two if you’re a smoker.) But, hey, have another Coke, it’ll make you feel better.

Want to see Northern Lights?

Where is the coolest place to stay and see the Northern Lights? Our vote goes to Hotel Igloo Village Kakslauttanen in Finland. The Northern Lights can be seen anywhere above 60 degrees north latitude but this place is special and these pictures show...

Hotel Igloo Village Kakslauttanen, Finland

Imagine yourself sleeping in an Igloo made of Snow. It is totally quiet. Lights inside ice illuminate the Igloo. These make the atmosphere so exciting that never get bored of marvelling it, until you fall to deep, comfortable sleep in your warm down sleeping bag.

Kakslauttanen is a cool place for seeing the Northern Lights, Aurora Borealis, as in the area there are not so many electric lights outside and it is north enough so that the probability of them is very high from late August to late April.

Do we stop to appreciate it?

Something to think about….

Washington, DC Metro Station on a cold January morning in 2007. The man with a violin played six Bach pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time approximately. 2 thousand people went through the station, most of them on their way to work. After 3 minutes a middle aged man noticed there was a musician playing. He slowed his pace and stopped for a few seconds and then hurried to meet his schedule.

4 minutes later:

The violinist received his first dollar: a woman threw the money in the hat and, without stopping, continued to walk.

6 minutes:

10 minutes:

45 minutes:

No one knew this, but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the greatest musicians in the world. He played one of the most intricate pieces ever written, with a violin worth $3.5 million dollars. Two days before Joshua Bell sold out a theater in Boston where the seats averaged $100.

*In a common place environment at an inappropriate hour, do we perceive beauty?

*Do we stop to appreciate it?

Thanks Gene

Wow!

Punctuation is Sexy, Too

Ever wondered which post of mine is the all-time most popular post? Yeah, me neither. But over time as I checked out my stats, it didn't take very long for me to figure it out, whether I wanted to or not. It's the one with that amazing illustration by Seymour Chwast and his Kama Sutra of Reading. Figures, huh? I get the most amount of hits from an amazing idea and illustration that ain't mine. Oh well.

So what's this leading up to? Well, we all know now that reading is sexy, but did you know that punctuation is sexy, too? A couple days ago I got an email from one of my instructors from my old design college, about this really cool T-shirt. I'm seriously thinking of ordering one:

The Comma Sutra!! I love it! And it gets better. There's even a little naughty Comma Sutra movie to get you all hot and bothered under the collar.

5) Everyone who grew up in the 80's has entered the digits 55378008 into a calculator.

7) Sharpening a pencil with a knife makes you feel really manly.

14) Rummaging in an overgrown garden will always turn up a bouncy ball.

16) Everyone always remembers the day a dog ran into your school.

21) Driving through a tunnel makes you feel excited.

22) You never ever run out of salt.

25) There's no panic like the panic you momentarily feel when you've got your hand or head stuck in something.

32) In every plate of chips there is a bad chip.

Calm and peaceful pic
