Time is Important

So as many of you may know, I value my time. Other than when I'm relaxing I like to be productive. I like the train 'cause I can get stuff done (fun or work). I always have a book so I'm not just waiting (I like reading), so I'm generally a patient waiter since I take the book to the doctor, meeting a friend for lunch, etc.

So James had this list of the value of time. I really liked these two (but he has more):

  • To realize the value of ONE MONTH, ask a mother who gave birth to a premature baby.
  • To realize the value of ONE HOUR, ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.

  • Hello my name is...

    Picture 10This is my name using Egyptian Hieroglyphs (supposedly). Does anyone know if this is really related to anything hieroglyphic? There are no references on the generating page to anything authentic. I'm seriously interested. I'm still thinking Egypt may be my next trip...

    LATER: I see now that these “letters” do have some meaning according to the Hieroglyphic entry in the Wikipedia. Although, even after reading the Wikipedia article, I'm still confused why some letters are stacked and some are side by side (my name doesn't fit this schema).

    The Morning Light

    We sat side by side in the morning light and looked out at the future together.So here's another painted rock with a quote on it (click image to enlarge) that I saw down by Lake Michigan. As I was walking along all these rocks (which really means jumping precariously from rock to rock) I had the darn Avril song running through my head. It was really kinda sad as I'm reading these rocks with different inspiring and sad messages running through my head. There were some really great ones but they were too faded or just too difficult (lighting/angle/shadows) to get a photograph of.

    It was an experience to see the beautiful peaceful water on one side and also be climbing all over the rocks and then pausing to read some of the writings or to see some of the pictures. And then that darn song which always makes me feel little was running through my head.
