Another Ramble About Perception

Perception is a very tricky thing. The appearance of a thing is not always what that thing is truly about. There could be more to the story. Everyone has to overcome perceptions about ourselves that can lead to misunderstandings or worse. Just because it looks weird doesn’t mean it always is weird.

Maybe asking questions and not jumping to conclusions can help one understand what is going on in any situation. Everything about us is judged and that is unfair but it’s a reality. You have to watch your p’s and q’s as they say so that people won’t think bad things about you or anything you might be doing. It’s a bad thing that perception and judging are close cousins if not siblings.

Howdy there friends, I hope all is well today. Here it is dreary, damp and gray outside. Fits the mood of the season right? My last few weeks of work have been productive and successful. I am grateful for all of that. As the holidays approach routines will change and there are challenges from that. My goal is to finish the year strong, or something like that.

Have a swell day, keep your eye on the prize and may you find peace and grace in all your situations. Let love rule. God bless.

That’s Not How This Works

You have probably seen this meme around the Internet and the spirit and message of it is very true. People understand one way of doing something and sometimes it’s not the right way of doing it. Life can be frustrating that way. Perhaps its a low tolerance for others doing something we know/think can be done in a different way. None the less its the way life is these days.

Back on Facebook, Yeah I Caved

I am back on Facebook as of tonight. I caved. I am ashamed a little. Really it’s hard to have a modern online life without it. Much of what I do relies upon it for work and that sort of thing. I need to be more disciplined and not get sucked into the negative stuff there. So if you are on Facebook friend me there at tonyburgess1969 .

Blogging is still my prefered platform for expression and communication with the masses. Blogger til I die!

Farewell To Fellow Bloggers

When a blogger finds blogging no longer fun and decides to depart it is a sad thing. Their posts became part of your experience online and they informed you about them and perhaps a little about you. Sometimes people don’t have time or perhaps they lose their fire for it. I hope I never lose interest in this thing called blogging. So to all the bloggers who have moved on I say farewell and may God bless you down the road.
