My Relationship with My Computer and Myself

August 17, 2008 by Liz

Last night, my computer got tired, spent, and packed it long before I even had such a thought. It misbehaved in a way that let me know that it wasn’t going to cooperate one second more.

I suppose I’ve been pushing it over the limit. So many things these days are resouces sinks.

I don’t multitask anymore, but I often ask my computer to keep an extreme number of processes running.

Am I fooling myself? After all someone has to check in on what’s going on . . .

Today while my IT husband replaces what we think is a blown video card, I think I might spend some time offline working on my relationship with myself.

Birdsongs, Business, and Life

March 30, 2008 by Liz

I've been thinking . . .

the songs that birds sing.

This morning, very early, I went out into a foggy day to see the sky and feel my feet on the ground. I heard a birdsong. It was a strong and familiar sound that I’ve not heard since who knows when. Immeidately, I was transported to days when I was a child and other ways of thinking.

That bird was doing what that bird does, and doing it well.

I’m glad I heard that particular bird today.

I’ll be thinking about that birdsong all day. What makes the birdsong of a business or a life?
