Conversation….

Our word for today is conversation. I have to believe that in today’s world of 140 (now 280) characters or less, it’s difficult to have a real conversation.

Image….

Our word today is “image.” I like it because it’s the basis of the word imagine. To me imagination is all about creating images of what might be. For example, it took some brilliant person to imagine the wheel or to think we could fly. Every small step from the stone age to this electronic
