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.

Matter over mind (90/100)

Today I worked at my school's open day. It was interesting and rewarding meeting hundreds of perspective students and their parents – directing them where to go, touring them around the campus, explaining our programs. It meant that I came home exhausted, though. So although I mentally wanted to go out and be sociable, find something interesting and stimulating to do, I was too sore. Instead we had a quiet night at home.


I'm grateful for a place where I can have a relaxing recharge after a big day, but my mind is still imagining all the exciting things to do beyond our doorstep.
