Review

When do you tend to mindlessly watch television or surf the Internet?

Set a reminder on your phone or your computer to use that time instead to call a friend, to talk and listen to your spouse or kids, or to journal about a person who has made a difference in your life.

Identify a few of your favorite tunes, and say a prayer thanking God for the talents of those who fill the world with song.

Review the last twenty-four hours. Where did you find God? Resolve to be more aware tomorrow as the day unfolds.

Silence

How can we possibly think, read, meditate, or write in a journal with noise bombarding us?
To learn to sit comfortably alone in silence, we need to try it in small steps.

Choices

Today I will witness the choices I make in each moment.  And in the mere witnessing of these choices, I will bring them to my conscious awareness. (Deepak Chopra, The Seven Spiritual Laws Of Success, p. 46)

Learning doesn't seem to get any easier.  The new computer allows me to explore many things I wasn't able to investigate when I was using the old computer with its severe limitations.  Now I always feel like I am playing catch-up.  This week I've worked on several projects:

• WordPress
• BookCrossing
• YouTube Playlists
• Posting links on Mr. Dickie's Blog to:
• WordPress
• Google Docs
• BookCrossing

I'm using WordPress to create a private blog where I can do some journaling with the computer.  For the last several years I have been putting my daily journal entries on yellow legal-size paper.  I usually do most of this writing in the morning.  I plan to continue this practice.  After I bought a used book about WordPress I started thinking about how I could learn about the application.  That's when the thought came to me that a good project might be to create a private blog. My friend in Illinois, Job Conger, has been using WordPress for his public blog Honey and Quinine for a long time.

Journaling

... describe in a journal what you are going to manifest into your life. ... your journal will not give you reason to doubt your dreams.  (Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, Wisdom Of The Ages, p. 217) 1 December 2011
