Have you given a party lately or invited others to join you for a film, concert or other event? Sometimes we hold back the invitations because we’re not sure people would want to come or could come.

If we are present in the company of our lives, meaning we are listening and thinking about what is happening, there will be times when we must capture what we’ve learned. Our memories are superb, but they fade, so we must help them. Capture what you’ve learned in a journal, a book inscription, a piece of art, writing or some other permanent place. This is a gift you give yourself that propels you in the direction you’re trying to go.

This is true in speech, writing or visual arts. Best to ask the receiver what he understands. And, don’t over-speak. Be precise, choose the right words and carefully proceed. Good luck.
“There is nothing insignificant in the world. It all depends on your point of view.” Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
That pretty much sums it up, wouldn’t you say?
