Today I had the opportunity to revisit an opportunity that I missed a while back. It was a bit of a big deal. Unfortunately, you and I aren’t the only two people on the Internet, apparently, so I have to keep the details of that opportunity hushed, for now.
While at work today, I came across this little nugget of a quote. No coincidence. It seems to fit perfectly with the theme of my day. I hope you like it. More importantly though, I hope it just resonates with you, too:
PS, I’d like to take a moment and officially welcome new readers to this blog – all those lovely, wonderful and intelligent people who RSS’d me this week. Stay awhile, click around. A few of my favorite items can be found at the bottom of my About SandyB page (but if you’re a lurker, you’ve probably already been there. It’s my most viewed page.)
Thanks to all the returning readers and to Cheryl, who pimped out her awesomeness for me this week. As an ode to you, I will be naming my second born Starbucks or Cheryl or Starbucks-Cheryl, if it’s a girl. Sorry I can’t name the first born that though- Rob and I have already settled on Hey You, just because.
PPS, you might want to click on that first link above- it’s a VLOG and I’m wearing a nice scarf. And a hat.
I was going to comment on the quote and say something insightful and pretend to be all holy and awesome, but then I saw the whole naming your second born Cheryl or Starbucks-Cheryl and I was like, SCREW THE QUOTE, THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME.
not that the quote is not good.
..love the quote.
I’m an awkward human being.
Hey there, just discovered your blog and I really like it!
The Seneca quote is so true. It resonated with me for sure. :)
well thank you! for stopping by and for saying that about the quote. I love a good quote… I find it gets the juices flowing for writing, pondering or just good ‘ol head-nodding in agreement.
Interested to hear what the opportunity is, and how it turns out! As you said, the opportunity should far outweigh the fear of rejection… Sage advice. I need to take that too, and take a leap of faith.
Hey there pretty lady. Well, I’d love to share the details of this “opportunity” at some point, for sure, but for now… well, this is why an ANONYMOUS blog is something a good thing.
I’d like to do more vlogs in the future. New cameraman though.
So happy I found your blog!
Welcome! Happy you found me, too! Looking forward to peeking at yours this afternoon.
um, excuse me sassypants mcgee, but your site looks amazing!!
i realize you’ve probably had it for awhile, but i’ve been MIA, as we all know.
anyway, i’m back and i missed you. looks great!
Well hello there Ms. Awesome and WELCOME BACK!
Ya, thought I’d clean the place up a bit and get a new design. Sort of a “balls to you 2009″ gift to myself. I see you’ve been posting…. I’m so coming over now!
I love that quote!
That means you leave half of it to God, and the other half you take care of yourself.
Perfect balance. :)
I’m not a religious person, far from it, but somehow what you just said made sense to me. Complete sense.
That was a beautiful insight.. thank you.
