mittwoch

as promised: last weekend in austin = spring.

so work continues and i am realizing that in order to find a suitable career i must become proactive and take risks; something i'm not all that adverse to, but which goes against my general demeanor.

for some odd reason i have the ability to be happy; to let very little bother me; and to have a positive mentality about most anything. i believe that comes from the beauty of life around me: found in nature, people and their interactions, activities, and creations. perhaps it is just the season, but i currently have a heightened appreciation.

the only detriment to my constant good mood is my tendency to avoid conflict and to ignore negativity in others and in potential situations. such ability to transition to 'detached views' can be insular: both in a beneficial and detrimental way.

i suppose the difference in philosophy i have can be summed thusly:

carpe diem versus Memento vivere


well - i must return to work.

live your day,

jeff
