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.

Can you feel luck coming?
I feel like this week is going to be lucky in terms of outcomes for my writing submissions. I don't know where this optimistic perception comes from. Certainly not from my horoscope, which I know not to believe, but only read for a bit of fun. Saturday's said basically that people won't take me seriously this week. My first response was, 'Piss off, stupid negative horoscope!' And Sunday's told me that I should channel my angst about it all not working into a journal which would become the first chapter of a new book. Two thoughts occured to me after reading this: first, that all pisceans must be writing books; two, that that would be a lame and boring way to start a book. Maybe, just maybe, people who write horoscopes don't know much about writing (or the future?). So, I will focus on feeling lucky this week and see what eventuates.
