Chocolate versus honey

-

I got this via Paula and ended up Yin like her. I don't think there's a connection. Anyway, yin fits.

You Are More Yin
Feminine Devoted Forgiving Fall Winter Afternoon Moon Time Passive Metal Honey

There is one thing wrong with this, though. I reversed all my answers to see what Yang would look like, and discovered that Yang is associated with chocolate! I like honey, but I like chocolate even more. Why can't chocolate be yin?

Cleaning out my surf-box

I have a folder in my mail application, labelled "surf" into which goes e-mails containing links to sites to read or explore later. Most of the mails are from myself to myself. Here are some gems worth sharing: It’s not what you plan to do that comes first, it’s what you’re willing to give up to make time and space to do it. From the Lifehack article Letting Things Go , which is a good read for us procrastinators. It touches on one reason we don't do what we want to do: We simply don't make the time for it.

Brave enough, after all

Prologue : I am no longer on partial sick leave. I am considered well and am back to work 100%! I have new tasks but am the master of my day, even though my work calendar has never been as full as it is now! Now: I was tasked with teaching some part-time workers about what a beta tester does at work, the temporary position I was in for over 18 months while on partial sick leave.

It started with a couple of things: A visit to my doctor's where I realized that "Trust, not doubt" (in Norwegian: "Tillit, ikke tvil") was my new mantra or motto. That was followed by an instruction from an online course that read, &quo
