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 silver lining

Today I found out the silver lining of having gained weight. We went to donate blood and I was able to give 30mL more than previously because the volume is calculated on body weight. This doesn't mean that I want to stay at this weight. Toward that end, I've just finished making the first salad for myself and my co-worker for lunch tomorrow. I made it much more interesting than I possibly would have it if it was just for me. And it's definitely healthier than what I would have grabbed from the cupboard as I left the house for work.




Salad ingredients (in case you want to make your own):

  • spinach
  • carrot
  • cucumber
  • capsicum (green)
  • spring onions
  • basil leaves
  • smoked salmon
