I'm here from Tomus Arcanum ... this is really interesting. Garbage dumps, the world over, are a problem. I agree with Amy ... I'd like to see the people working tell their story.

Very interesting piece!

Brilliant! I especially like the one about reducing self-inflicted junk mail. I'd add to that to reduce any kind of junk mail. It's the "green" thing to do. :)

Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

Re: Strategies for Nurturing Your Professional Network and Professional Relationships

Excellent post! I've always believed that networking is valuable but, as you said, it must be authentic. I love people so taking an interest in them is easy. I think that's the key ... not getting to know someone for what they can do for one's career, etc. ... but getting to know them for the value of simply knowing another.

Thanks, Sid, for inviting your friend to guest author ... and thanks to Alpesh for a thought provoking post!

I have felt little "glimmers" of what you describe and talk about but ... I'm not there yet. I'm envious of the stage you are at and what you know and understand. I need to read, and re-read this post!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us!

“What would you improve about a computer or Web application that you currently use?”

I'd really like a computer that could read my mind! :)

“What does your perfect computer or Web application do?”

Cook dinner, clean the house, feed the cat and water the plants. Okay ... you did say "perfect" right? And a person can dream!

Does being a step-parent count? Here's my entry:

When I was 18, I became a step-parent to two little boys, ages 3 and 4. Initially they didn't live with us ... that happened a few years later. By the time they moved in, they had lived a pretty tough life ... too tough for sweet little kids. I didn't have kids of my own and, wanting to be a good parent, I read everything I could about how to raise children. None of the recommended "good parent" methods seemed to work for these troubled children ... they were unhappy and I was unhappy. So I tossed out the books and started really listening to them ... taking the time to really hear what was in their hearts. They were scared and angry and they didn't understand anything that happened to them in their short little lives. Finding that out helped me to help them. It wasn't an easy road ... there was a lot of hurt to overcome. But understanding their confusion and pain was the beginning of healing.

Having these two little boys taught me patience and also taught me that when people are hurt inside they typically let it out in brash ways. So things like anger might only be a reflection of fear and/or pain that sits in one's heart. That's a powerful realization. Now, when I encounter someone who is angry, I think that perhaps they are frightened or in emotional pain ... it changes the way I interact with them.

Thanks for hosting a giveaway!

Re: Reusable Grocery Bags Aren’t Always All That

Small Footprints — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 19:07:01 -0000

Thank you for sharing this information with us. While reusable bags are a wonderful alternative to plastic or paper, they, like anything else, get dirty. You offer some wonderful tips for keeping things clean!

Re: Help Your Popular Blog Post Reach it’s Full Potential

Wonderful tips, Brian! I especially like the idea of going back and updating links ... and eliminating those that don't work. I think it shows the reader, who may wander back through old posts, that the author is on the ball and cares about the content of posts, both past and present. To me, there is nothing more frustrating than to find a post I want to read only to click on a link and find that it's dead. I have to admit that it's not something I've done ... it does take time. But this post motivates me to go back and check things out.

Thanks!

I believe consumers have great power in their purchases. If we, as consumers, insist on quality, eco-friendly products and services ... providers will accommodate us. Many people are unaware that their purchases (demand) control the product (supply). Case in point ... not many years ago organic produce was unheard of. Now it is readily available at prices competitive with non-organic produce. So I believe the message needs to go out to the consumer ... we need to be reminded that there is great power in our purchases.

Take Care!
