Weed and Water, and bit of The Sun

Its cathartic really to spend two hours weeding a garden. Forced to slow down my thought process, (as these things take time) I learn a lot from my thoughts...I'd probably learn more if I discussed with someone else.

And speaking of social, as these thought processes typically lead back to business..how much revenue is actually generated by links from social media? How much revenue is driven by online chat on customer portals?

I personally haven't generated ANY. Ha...well at this point this blog isn't about making money, its about figuring out life..the age old meaning to jump into a cliche. We all know deep inside if we pay attention to our humanness. At least I believe we do...but I haven't gotten to that aha moment, the eureka of life. Like weeding the garden, these things take time.


As I weeded my gardens tonight, a few neighbors said hello from the road :) I like a neighborhood where people are friendly. Mine's that kind of hood. One man commented we are always at the extremes here in Minnesota...when it was rainy, it was too rainy. Now that it's hot, its too hot and we'd really love all that water.

To which I replied, obviously, "We wouldn't have any complaints if we'd saved the water though, right?" This statement applies to all the elements. We have enough, its just the resources aren't allocated properly. The sun provides exponentially more energy than we use, harnessing that energy for the greater good is possible, but its far cheaper to burn fossil fuels. Ugh, humans. God is not money.

Are we our thoughts or our actions? Or are we our words, what makes us human? Chemistry, matter, and a bit of magic...Seeds of life in a garden called Earth. Time to cook up the harvest for one.
