Apologies are Powerful

Nothing can be more healing than an apology from someone whom has hurt you.

If you ever hurt someone, be accountable for what you have done, and apologize. If you do not realize you have hurt someone, listen to what that person has to say and embrace it. If what they are saying is valid, well, apologize. You both need to move on. It takes courage to apologize. Not everyone has the ability to do this, but once you have found the courage, and find an inner strength to do so, the rewards are priceless.

Commuters with Backpacks

I would like to express the importance of common courtesy while commuting. Are you the commuter who wears a backpack? Laptop? Are you the one taking public transportation, while stepping onto the bus or train without removing your wide load? Well............ will you please take that damn thing off? LOL!

Do you realize that your backpack takes up one more "body space? People are trying to get past you, only to find a very tight area to stand. This is all because you could not remove the pack off your back and drop it down. It's real easy you know? Other commuters would really appreciate that courtesy of you.

It is difficult for us to wedgy past your wide load, and only to find a 2" radius of commuting real estate.

Thank you and have a nice day.

People Cover Your Mouth!

Ok, I caught this nasty cold somewhere. Still not sure but lemme tell ya, it is nasty! Now. I consider myself a pretty healthy girl. I take my womens utlra mega vitamin every day. I eat well. I walk a hella lot around this city. My excersize is moderate. So how did I catch this damn flu-bug-chest-cold- discusting flemmy-strain-thingy? It qualifies in the "ewe" factor ok?

Ok. So. Everyone at work seems to have it. The commuters all seem have it, well, at least the ones that choose to sit right next to me! But people, please! Cover your mouth when you cough or sneeze! For crying out loud! I was out sick for 3 working days. How inconsiderate of you to hack and cough in a public place. This has cut into my vacation PTO time 3 days less that I am able to visit in Austria this summer. What-everrrrrrrrr!
