blank page

someone you know is a writer.

they may only do it for themselves, and it may be difficult to get them to share it with you.  they may do it for a living.  they may have to write reviews of spatulas to pay the bills, or maybe they get to help other people learn all the tricks that make them think about what they're writing.  sometimes they're the one who doesn't talk much, but you know they have a lot to say.  sometimes they're the one who talks all the time and you give them a pencil just to shut them up for a while.  in any case, they have something to say.  or maybe it's you who has something to say, so say it.

every say is a syk day.

unplugged

someone you know took a cyber-vacay.

work, phone, email, posting, ding, ding, ding, beep.  there are times when people just need to leave it all for a little while and be with people in real life.  as has been noted by the teens in a studio recently, it's a HOO (hanging out online) versus HIRL (hanging in real life) kinda world, and rarely shall the two converge.  try leaving your phone at home and going out for the afternoon, just to hear what it's like to operate without the dings and beeps for a few hours.  see what life is like in real life for a day... then you can report back to your online peeps.

every day is a syk day.

white hats

someone you know wears a white hat.

In the old westerns the good guy would ride in to town wearing a white hat and save the town or rescue the maiden.  Nowadays the white hat is harder to see but it still exists.  The guy wearing the white hat might not be wearing white, a hat, or even be a guy. Heck, sometimes they don’t even know that they are wearing the white hat!  But those people that make a difference in our lives still exist and we are thankful.  Take a moment and share this with someone you know that wears a white hat and let them know you appreciate them.

Every day is a syk day.
