I rode to a tiny market five or six blocks away from the office for a bite to eat.  Along the way I ended up on a road that had old railroad tracks running down it.  Now railroad tracks aren’t such a big deal to cars (except the pointy parts) but on a bike the tires will occasionally twist and run along the track instead of going straight.  In ( Read more... )

Something I'm doing my absolute best is to try and look for the good thing in everything and see all of my problems as opportunities whether for personal growth or possible business ideas.

Besides, people like hanging around optimism and people who show them the good in themselves or where they can go, or whatever.

My first thought was about whether or not a car was behind me and being immediatly ready to jump in either direction or straight up if neccessary. The being pleased about rolling and Akido came while I was getting back onto my bike =D

Now if your friend meant "I know this girl, she's great, I think the two of you are perfect for eachother, you'll both grow old together and have a brace of kids fortified by cash flowing from the open windows of the heavens above" Oh, wait I was actually not trying to be silly there.

I think there's run away optimism just like there's run away pesimism. And quite frankly you don't want to be around either (but if you had to choose the overblown optimist would probably win out.)

I get excited about potential. And I love having my whole frame of reference shifted an expanded in order to look at things in new ways and discover uses for them.

Think about it. Every poison is also a cure. Various snake venoms have incredible uses when given in the right amounts to people with certain conditions. To me, that's what optimism is about. Finding the cure inside the posion.

I don't think I can ever forget the way you cheerfully admit ignorance. It brightens up my day just thinking about it =D

There's the I find that fascinating "I don't know." Then there's the playful I don't know the answer to this silly line of questions and even if I did I'd only try to come up with something just as silly to say so instead I'll say "I don't know." Or the stop pestering me "I don't know." the answer to your question. Go away! I'll decide whether or not to hate you later *grr*
