Mañana, Mañana

There is a Spanish proverb: "Tomorrow is often the busiest day of the year." That's how I feel lately -- there isn't enough time to do everything today, so somethings are put off until the next day... and the cycle continues!

Doing More With Less

William Safire wrote about the word "frugalista" in today's New York Times. I love the word and its implication that saving money can be stylish and au courant.

Do Unto Others...

Keane appears to be referring to the "Golden Rule" in their song Perfect Symmetry, proclaiming that "what I do, that will be done to me." No a bad reminder that one should expect what goes around to come around right back at you.

Be Bold!

Too often, many of us take a tepid approach to life, making lukewarm attempts to get the things we want. So today, I'd like to encourage you all to BE BOLD and grab at the brass ring with all the passion you possess!

Pain is temporary; pride is forever!

I saw this sign several times as I ran the NYC Marathon on Sunday, and nothing could express my feeling about the event better!

Castles in the Air

I've also liked the idea of dreaming... and then working to make your dreams come true. As Henry David Thoreau said, "If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them."
