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.

'Alternative' therapies

Tonight I am extremely thankful for the unexpected benefits of 'alternative' therapies. (I put it in quotes because I think it's silly that traditional, non-pharmaceutical, Eastern or other similar treatments are considered alternatives.) I saw my chiropractor, then had acupuncture, which finished with a little bonus Chinese massage. I've had positive results in the past treating my migraines with the combination of chiropractic and acupuncture. Today, I went into their office dizzy, as I've been for weeks; and I left without dizziness! I don't know which of the treatments finally calmed my head, but I don't care. My head isn't swimming and fuzzy for a change! I'm interested to see if I wake up tomorrow with any dizziness or not. Whether I do or not, I've enjoyed an afternoon and evening of unprecedented steadiness.
