Life, Better: Combined Action
http://reachigher.blogspot.com/2009/02/combined-action.html
Simple ideas to make things better. Thursday, February 12, 2009. Now, I think the ultimate concern when identifying a useful New Year's resolution is its effectiveness. And with my resolutions, effectiveness ultimately comes from scope. If you look at my day's activities, reading 10 pages takes me maybe 20-30 minutes, and exercising takes me less than that (so far it has been sit-ups and push-ups before bed). What is the impact of these actions? Not much. "Oooh, big deal, 10 whopping pages," right? I lik...

Life, Better: April 2009
http://reachigher.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Simple ideas to make things better. Wednesday, April 15, 2009. Clothes are a good example. There are so many shirts that I have that I like. I think we put parts of our selves in the items we call our own. And sentimentality isn't necessarily a bad thing, don't get me wrong. But when we hang on to things long after we stop using them, all of a sudden our stuff becomes a burden. One more thing to carry, to worry about, to protect, to defend. Why are they doing this today? What do you give life to.

Life, Better: February 2009

Simple ideas to make things better. Friday, February 27, 2009. I was listening to public radio and an astrophysicist from the University of Chicago was talking about her book Einstein's Telescope. We will have to wait a long time. But by then, it will have become very old news once again. Physical contact is relatively rare in daily life and has a lot of mystique about it. What is more personal and private than touch? What is more comforting in the right context? Thursday, February 12, 2009. So maybe Gan...

Life, Better: Failure
http://reachigher.blogspot.com/2009/05/failure.html
Simple ideas to make things better. Monday, May 25, 2009. Revisiting that speaking tour by Rob Bell that I talked about a few posts back, he had a great lesson about failure. He told the story of a pottery class. At the beginning of the two week course the teacher split the class into two groups. To one group he said, "spend the next two weeks making only. How did we get this way? May 26, 2009 at 2:16 PM. I question your paper-ladybug-making skills. May 27, 2009 at 3:30 PM. May 28, 2009 at 9:38 PM. We wr...

Life, Better: January 2009
http://reachigher.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Simple ideas to make things better. Tuesday, January 27, 2009. I think I know what we're after. And I think we are misguided. After reading and rereading some of our posts, and more importantly the comments left (thank you all! And what if you not only had an answer, but you had a plan. Well then you are going places in life. Right? Have had that as their goal. They must. Convinced him to get into politics. And look where he is now! When he was 22, do you think he knew where he'd be at age 48? No Life to...

A Journey in Food, Sustainability, and Satiation. Offering Online Nutrition Lesson, Need Yo’ Help! Notes from a 28-Day Vegan Challenge Survivor. February 19, 2013. Actually, make that 38 days.
