Can I borrow a cup of sugar? Thanks! How 'bout one...
I live in Champlin, MN, on a horseshoe shaped street with 70-some homes on it. As with most typical neighborhoods, families move in and out, but a handful of us ‘originals’ still live here - our kids now all grown and we smile at the new families with their little ones, happy there is still the energy around here that only children can bring to a neighborhood. Across the years we’ve all...

The Paradoxical Commandments
People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered. Love them anyway. If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives. Do good anyway. If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies. Succeed anyway. The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable. Be honest and frank anyway. The biggest men and...
The Humble Pencil, The Mighty Computer
viafrank:
Creative people tend to romanticize their tools. We place them on pedestals as the conduits for our ideas and the enablers of our craft. Contrastingly, though, I think all creatives believe that a good tool does not make a good designer, and a good designer does not need top-of-the-line special tools. In fact, I’d say all one usually needs is a pencil and a sheet of paper. With that,...

In the midst of all the changes in all of our collective lives, it’s comforting to have some traditions that remain constant. 2010 has been a year of great change, great heartache and excruciating loss on many levels. It’s also been a year of growth, and a new...

The Important Things in Life
Last week at one of the networking groups I belong to (NetworksMN) my friend Larry Pepper brought this motivational story to all of us. He’d assumed everyone had heard this before, but honestly, I had not. I don’t know who to give credit to for this, as it wasn’t on the sheet that he gave me, but I enjoyed it, and needed the reminder….

Remembering my Dad today
My dad passed away early Sunday morning, and today was the funeral for him. Over the coming weeks and months I’ll continue to process and remember and love and write about him. Most of what I write will remain private but I do want to share what we prepared for the funeral home website. The video tribute shows a brief glimpse into the beautiful soul that he is. I miss him. Dad’s...
