As heard on the 1/29/09

We talk about the world,

The fact is,
we are one people living
in 6 billion worlds.

Perspective Brouhaha at American Idol
Did you hear about that today?
Apparently one of the contestants
in parting apparently said something
like, "be careful whatever you do."
It was something later found out
to be a regional way of speaking,
however some of the judges,
apparently from a different region,
heard it as a threat.
Here's the LA Times Article
Ever hear of the slang "Phat"?
It sounds like "fat"...and unless
you are familiar with it, you might
just take it as an insult. However,
it is actually a slang compliment -
Pretty, Hot, And Tempting.
The next time you think you might
want to take offense at something
said, you may want to take a
moment. It might just be that it's
not what you thought, and might
actually even be its opposite.
Ever wonder how many altercations
may begin from this type of
misunderstanding?
I'd say it's something to consider...

Perspective Short: Theodore Roosevelt
Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.
- Theodore Roosevelt
How many times have you stopped because you think
you, or it, isn't good enough, big enough, "right"
enough, beautiful enough...?
Q: How do you eat an elephant?
A: One bite at a time
If you have an idea that speaks to you in some way,
it likely is worth doing, however you can get it done.
You can always change or build upon it later.
If you have ever felt this way,
consider the following:
If you were "given" the idea,
you likely already
know how to take the first step.
And...
An idea never seeks perfection,
(what is "perfection," any way?)
it only gives you direction.
