Too many seasonal people, too little interest, too much mindless mingling.

Yesterday I posted a really neat-o article, that sort of describes TEH BIG IDEA behind this site. We are all connected — in myriads of ways. Louis (Jett = @JettWriter š ) mentioned (indirectly) a podcast in her article, and so she connected me to that. At the end of the podcast, there was a little mention (ad) of another podcast provided by the same company (and which I have listened to before too — but not for a while, and so there was a sort of re-connection made [even though I don’t think I will take that other podcast up again, because it ultimately became simply plain vanilla mainstream stuff, and began to bore me because it was actually not enlightening, strictly speaking] ).
And today I want to do something also a little out-of-the-ordinary … mainly because something quite out-of-the-ordinary happened. Two people I follow (neither of whom I have ever met (at least AFAIK š ), posted very particular thoughts — which were very similar — at pretty much the exact same time! And they aren’t strangers to me (because I follow their writing), but I don’t know them (per se). And they don’t know each other (again: AFAIK). So Caralyn, meet Velda! Velda, meet Caralyn!
I certainly had to unlearn a lot of deeply, deeply engrained bad habits that were slowly destroying my mind, body and soul.

I can remember to be kind to myself when letting go of an idea too.

There are many fascinating points of the juxtaposition of these ideas (and please: do yourself the favor of clicking through to the full articles! š ). I agree with many points — and that is what I wish to underscore. Whether there are some points I might disagree with doesn’t really matter all that much — and I probably don’t disagree as much as I simply don’t know.
If you would like to learn more about my own ideas related to connections, networking, information on the Internet, etc. please feel free to follow some of my other blogs — e.g. contextual.news.blog. Let me warn you, however, that not everyone always agrees with me — and that’s perfectly OK, too!
ps: hat tip to Rodolfo Clix (via Velda’s post) for the bright photo / idea š

research indicates even when we think we donāt want strangers to say hello or interact with us, we are happier when they do. It should no longer be taboo to talk to people on elevators and subways or to sit in the front seat on Lyft rides. You should pay close attention to body language and personal boundaries as you approach someone new, but you shouldnāt avoid eye contact at all cost. Even brief eye contact can make people feel more connected and included.

During my eight months of being a Tour Guide before the corona outbreak it taught me 3 things. One is that being a Tour Guide you have to make sure that you are positive and in a good mood before every tour. No one wants to go on a Tour with someone who is grumpy or mad. So my task everyday was trying to make sure someone saw why I chose this school while keeping it straight with the families.
