Wonderful Dots

Connecting dots with The Idea Dude

I’m on vacation, or rather I’m recuperating from the frenetic run-up to the vacation. The word vacation made me think of footprints in the sand. Who made them and where. Blogs are like footprints, they are made everywhere. I wanted to take you on journey beyond my North American shores to show how dots from all over can reach us when it is so unexpected.

It all started with Grigor. From afar as Croatia, he inspired me today. He only needed one sentence…

We must not require from our customers to be heroes.

So simply and so profound… a dose of wisdom for the day.

Head over to the United Kingdom. How can you not read about DozeyMagz and her life with DopeyDaddy, Dustbunny and Mophead. It has the universality of being a mom with a heartwarming local twist from the land that beget Harry Potter. Her post on British weather made me smile…

There’s a big bright yellow thingie in the sky. The sky has changed from bland grey to a strange blue. It feels warm outside. I’m a bit scared.

A cup of tea with that dose of wisdom. I think I’ll read her blog with my daughter tonight.

To finish our trilogy today, Bhaswati shares with us from India. Through her translation, she’s given us a gift, a beautiful piece of writing that now transcends language.

One doesn’t find the time to grasp that which remains unsaid within.

A lingering thought after the cup of tea is done.

For me, they are all some kind of wonderful…

How many posts on your blog does it take to move me?
just ONE

May the dots be with you!

    Gosh, don’t blush. I do that sort of thing (on worse and louder) all of the time. :)

    Hi Valeria, I could a lot worse than being mistaken for Liz’s writing. I wish it was true, but I’m just a poor imitation :)

    Thanks so much!

    Thank you so much for linking me as one of the dots, Vern. Nothing gives me more joy than to know Tagore touched someone despite my inept translation. :)

    Hello Bhaswati, without you there would have been no messenger and no message.

    Thank you.

    Thanks, Liz and Vernon. The pleasure is all mine. I have been following this blog for a while, and to say I love it would be an understatement.

    Please keep up the good work. :)
