Daily Prompt: Lofty

Everyone has some sort of goal in life. For some they are very lofty, very ambitious. To have that sort of idea requires lots of work, dedication, persistence and perspiration. A lofty goal can also be one that is unattainable and unrealistic but there are people who are working to make their dreams come true.

Then there are people who are of a status that puts them in their minds above everyone else. They treat people as less than and have a superiority complex.

Great speakers are gifted in their oratory and eloquence as they inspire people to ascend to new heights and to be something better. They can challenge people to rise up to a challenge and to achieve something great.

I Have Settled On Linux Distribution – Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS #ubuntu #linux

I have finally settled on Ubuntu 16.04.1 which is running really well so far on the new desktop. Ubuntu is an Open Source operating system that runs like Windows or iOS but it’s free and is largely community and developer supported. At the moment I am downloading free software so I can do things like edit photos, manage media and to create stuff for the blog and so much more.

You may ask why not just use Windows…well I have been a fan of Linux for years. I have been able to take old computers and give them new life because there is less bloatware and that sort of thing. It’s also a matter of being able to upgrade without cost. My Chromebook is based of of Linux too so it runs on the same principle.

Creating and connecting is going to be a lot of fun using this new configuration.

Daily Prompt: Or

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. It provides us an opportunity to decide on something we want. Recently we had a choice of candidates H vs. D.  Be glad there is an “or” in life because if there weren’t life might be more difficult.

Something About Blogging In The Moment

bloggingI appreciate the blogging community for being a community that is by-in-large supportive, intelligent and thought out in how we communicate with the world. Other platforms seem to be a conversational firecracker where people have been known to do great harm. Yes we all get emotional and want to post about how we are feeling in the moment but when you think about it blogging makes you think about what you are saying and perhaps gives you a chance to breathe a bit more before pressing the save/publish/share button.

Blogging in the moment is something I have been known to do. Capturing the emotion of a situation makes it more real and immediate. However letting yourself cool down can help you save face and have a more reasoned response to how you are feeling.

To all of you who follow my blog and appreciate how I do it, I thank you. You are an oasis in a social media storm.

WordPress Desktop Apps, Great For Power Blogging #wordpressdotcom #wordpress

I downloaded the WordPress App for Linux and it is a great tool to keep you focused on composing blog posts. I really like it and when all I want to do is write or read blogs its a great piece of software. You can also manage all the functions of all the blogs you operate. Download it today if you have iOS, Linux or Windows. You will be a much better blogger for doing so.

 

Daily Prompt: Sincere

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. Genuine people by definition are sincere. The world needs more people with sincerity and free of pretension.
