The flames of a campfire or in a fireplace on a cold night can warm the body and soul. The flicker of the red, yellow and sometimes orange hues dancing are very hypnotic. Flames can mean other things like the heat of passion or the heat of an argument. You can get burned by flames but those same flames can illuminate a path and help you find your way. When controlled flames do amazing things but when they are left to their on devices they can be destructive and very harmful. Flames can also inspire and make you wonder. May we all keep our flames in check lest they burn someone or something we love.
Or is a kind of choice thing. It’s this or that. One thing or another. You or me. Coffee or tea. Wine or beer. It’s about an alternative to something like Android or iPhone.

Being sincere is something you have to work at I think. The balance of being earnest and honest is where you find true sincerity. I feel like sincerity is a virtue,are naturally inclined to be.

Transformation means change, to be made into something new. When you evolve and grow than transformation is inevitable.

Change means leaving things behind in hopes for better things ahead.
Being clumsy can come about from doing too many things at one time. It also means that we could be distracted about something. Whether it be spilled coffee, dropping a dish or tripping over your shoelaces being clumsy comes from being human. Everyone has their moments when clumsiness takes over.
Being an original is so hard when so many want to be copy cats. Doing something new, innovative and exciting takes a lot of hard work. I think of people who were brave to create things that made the world a better place.
WordPress.com as a social blogging platform is full of original and creative people doing interesting things. Being original means standing out from the rest. It’s encouraging when original people empower others to be original themselves.
On a personal level being original means marching to the beat of your own drummer. It is sad when originality and individuality are met with criticism. Always be you, always be original.
