Friday! One of my favs! 🙂 Just a short post to share something and also to save it here so I don’t forget about it. Last weekend I was in one of the home stores (love those shops…) and walked past this tray. I’d actually walked out of the shop before it had sunk in.

Such is the salutation to the dawn.  — Attributed to Kalidasa A leader is best when people barely know he exists.

I like Sundays. It seems the world seems to slow down a bit. As if everyone takes a breath and is a little closer to how life should be. Spending time doing the things you like doing. Alan Watts the philosopher talks about choosing to spend your time on tasks that you enjoy doing rather than choosing them for financial reward only. If not he says; “You will spend your life completely wasting your time. You will be doing things you don’t like doing in order to go on living…
