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.

The best commute

I may have found the best way to commute tonight. I rode my bike home in a t-shirt (even though it's May) in the beautiful autumn dusk. I passed many cars stuck in traffic while getting exercise, breathing mostly fresh air and not adding to air pollution. Also, it took less time and was less cramped than it would have been on public transit at 5pm on a Friday. Now I feel like I can guilt-freely enjoy a drink and some chocolate for dessert. I'm going to ignore the fact, for the moment, that many of the things that made tonight's commute lovely are transient. Cheers to the weekend.

    When I first read this I didn't understand why a t-shirt in May mattered as I usually associate May with summer. Then I remembered how cold it could get, possibly 7 degrees and some rain.
