"Like" and "Love" in Leadership
As Facebook continues to gather click after click onto "Like" buttons, it occurred to me to write something for you who are all in my "Like" list.
- It is impossible to work in something or with someone that is not liked.
- A few degrees of happiness tighter, the concept of "love" encompasses "like" in special cases, when something is liked AND loved.
- So it is our turn to look at our likes and loves and make sure we are harmonious in our daily interactions with the Cosmos, with the Universe, with strangers/the general public.
- It is a mystery the distance between like and love, yet both are on the same side of the fence of self preservation. To guide others with likes and loves is a path to better leadership, understanding what is that makes followers do their best even under stressful circumstances.
- For those surrounded by dislikes, it is an embattled leader's responsibility to build a road out or find a way out.

May 18th One More Pillar Day in May
May is flying by, it seems. Has anyone discovered what the little globes atop a pillar are? Have you seen those? They seem to be in Adrian territory.

Peanut Butter and Butter
In the absence of jelly, try a peanut butter sandwich in which you spread a bit of butter ['beurre'], regular butter atop the peanut butter. Be surprised by the results.

A day of flowers
of relaxation hours
of gifts for the giving
A break from the routine

Do I Know How to Use Later-model Cell Phone?
No, my youngest brother does. It occurs to me those things are not telephones, they are electronic devices. "It has the Web" she said, the person who had asked me for help with her cell phone since I am "good with computers". I broke the news to her, the only person who can help is my brother, I can barely even see a cell phone screen without my glasses.

Your Cinco de Mayo Mission Should You Choose to Accept It
There is still a little time to plan for tomorrow, el Cinco de Mayo [5/5/2012]. Your mission should you choose to accept it is to find out what happened to garbanzos in Mexican cuisine. Yes. simple. nonviolent. savory. Where are the garbanzos [chick peas] in Mexican cuisine? :)
who is going to be the first to try refried garbanzos? served with a toasted flour tortilla.

A Peace Sign at the McDonald's
She said "we'll build another McDonald's". One of the groups that gave this small island as many McDonald's as it wished belongs to my old high school. I made my peace with McDonald's before I knew this, when my healthy diet gave me enough confidence and strength to try other foods. Dollarwise, they offer the most affordable meal in the area.
My temporary cloud of negativism and sadness is staved while I am in the brightly decorated locale, that cloud I see over other people and we all must be mindful against it. We must also be mindful of the overpowering, personality changing cloud unleashed by Stella! Those hits are still active, strong and mind/body altering, degrading. I had been wanting to say this for some time now.
