egg > chicken | children > adults
“the chicken is the eggs way of reproducing itself” I find this quote amazing. it flips my perception around and has made me think about ‘us adults.’ It seems that as we grow older we lose our wonder.

sex
we are having sexual harassment training at work today. I have never sat through such an event, but am looking forward to it - it’s the closest thing to The Office that I will experience. I am also wondering if it’s my company’s way to tell me that hugging men in the workplace is wrong. did the word sex in the title make you want to read the post? i am a marketer remember.

I have decided that it will be a good day. no not because i may close a deal or I may meet Michael Jordan in the elevator. I am going to have a good day because of the defintion of good and the access that I am given to it. often at the end of the day I determine the weight and the volume of actions taken and determine the days worth based on that equation. if it amounts to something it was a...

the precautionary principle + falling down...
the precautionary principle is a rule of thumb the EU has applied to decisions before they are made at a government level, however it’s also an interesting notion if applied to self and those around us. It asks the question - that by this certain action, or this certain word, am I creating an irreversible course of action that stands to do harm to an individual or community of people? ...

throwing tennis rackets & providence
only a few people have witnessed me throwing tennis rackets…only because I play tennis with a few people. I throw them too often, hate to admit that - but I do. on saturday I played a game of tennis and it turned into a huge dialogue between my flesh, my head, and God. i can’t make sorts of all of it yet but here is a quick attempt. I have ‘lost an edge’ that I once had...
