A Transfiguration

Light across the cloud
The eye of God looking down
Changed when it meets me

 

A Look At The FUSE Conference

I found this fun little video today:

As fan of Debbie Millman’s work, especially her podcast: Design Matters, I really got a kick out it. Now, it’s a bit out of date (2013…wow…in some respects it seems like just a few days ago, and also like a hundred years ago).

I haven’t made it to a FUSE Conference yet. This is something that I find very intriguing and want to experience. Maybe not as bad as Burning Man, but, well, you know…

Anyway, I love the effect of leaving through the notebook. Very charming.

 

A Rainy Seattle Friday: Haiku Challenge

Rain is now falling

A #Seattle element 

All things grow from there
The “word of the day” was “element”

Full moon this evening

And now it’s Thursday

This strange thing, Thursday

Near the end of the workweek

But without respite

A Haiku About Being True To Yourself 


​Being true to “you”

In this age of social noise

Now, who is this “me”?

Welcome to November

Welcome November!
It’s supposed to rain today
This is Seattle

Autumn’s Approaching

One more day of light
Soon, autumn’s fury descends
The callous winter

A Monday Dose Of Positive Energy

Filled with potential
Vibrant, manic energy
Another Monday

I hope your Monday launches you into an amazing week.

Your Best Work Isn’t “Nothing”

As you may have noticed, I think very highly of Seth Godin. This blog post gave words to an idea I’ve been considering:

Money for nothing

Seth says “…your best work isn’t nothing…”. I adore that! A reminder that our work is valuable, that our lives have worth. Seeking shortcuts to accomplishment not only shortchanges the one seeking the easy path, it short changes us all. We need to see the value we add, embrace that, and, then, get to work!
I hope you have a marvelously productive Monday!
When searching for a “Featured Image” for this post, I came across this one. Reminds of my favorite things when working for Starbucks and Microsoft.
