What's in a name?

According to my Apple dictionary, admittedly not a definitive source, a ‘consideration’ is a thought, reflection, meditation, concern, rumination etc. I would like this blog to do those things. I’m hoping I can keep the posts positive because, as someone once reminded me, it is important to practise the habits of mind that you value and want to foster. For me those are: positivity, curiosity, openness and self-reflection (hence, a blog is a good forum).


Also, I’m calling them 'small' because I would like to try to get into the habit of blogging briefly but often. That way I can reflect on everyday occurrences and make this form of writing and thinking a habit, hopefully.

Unexpectedness

Tonight I am grateful for two things that happened that were completely unexpected. Firstly, I got five hours of sleep overnight, then another one and a half hours after breakfast this morning. The difference in my mood, energy level and overall outlook, compared to three hours of sleep, is enormous. Secondly, I went out for dinner with friends to a renowned local dumpling place. I expected to have a rice dish while the others enjoyed dumplings because of my wheat allergy. As it turned out, the restaurant had gluten free dumplings marked on their menu so I was able to gorge on the little pockets of tastiness as well. This has been the best day I've had in a week and a half; things are looking up!
