I never do these, but decided to give it go this once. Well, maybe another time, but we’ll see… Share Your World (SYW) is now being hosted by Melanie over at Sparks from a Combustible Mind, and today’s SYW is here.
On to the Questions:
Are You A Better Listener or Speaker?
I would love to say that I am better listener. I am an Introvert so am not out there pushing my POV all of the time. However, I am also distractable. And, of course, being an Introvert I live in my head. Lastly, I try to be honest, so I guess I need to say that I’m a better speaker, at least now that running meetings is one of my main job functions and so speak for a living. That being said, I would think (hope) that I am a better listener than most people…
If You Were Asked To Design A Warning Label That Would Be Tattooed On Your Skin, What Would It Say?
“Warning: This person does not have a “Normal” setting. Any expectations of normalcy will not be met.”
What Are You Passionate About?
Life! OK, if I have to be specific: Music (playing and listening), “printed” words (reading and writing), visual arts (doing and observing), outside/nature/world (participating)
If You Could Change One Thing About Your World, What Would It Be?
If it is “The World” and not “My World”, I would say that I would make everyone less money hungry and more people focused. As far as “My World”, if I can change something, I try to do it, if I can’t, then I accept it. Odd question.
What Gave You A Reason To Smile This Past Week?
Where to start? Eenie-meanie-miny-moe. OK, I smiled because I started blogging again after a month away and have reconnected with all of you out there. :) I have also thought about bringing back The Weekly Smile.
So there it was. Pretty painless ;)
Bring back the weekly smile Trent! We all need to share some smiles! Love the not normal answer :-)

I am about 95% sure it will be back, perhaps mid-October. :)

Thanks Y. I am very much not normal ;) I’m about 90% convinced The Weekly Smile will make a comeback. If so, it will most likely happen the first week of October.

well I like how you stayed in tune with it – and maybe a year long run would be good – who knows how these things go – eh

If/When I do it again I will most likely only do one a week! (I did two, because I picked up as many new “Smiles” on Sunday as Wednesday). And I will have breaks so it isn’t constant. And maybe set a time limit – that I could surpass if I’m still on a roll.

Very nice. The ‘change one thing about ”your world” question is going to be interesting to read answers from! I think everyone might interpret it differently. I liked your answer! Thanks for participating and yeah, The Weekly Smile would be very nice indeed! Good to see you back!

Thanks.
I know there are many ways to interpret that question and I know that I could easily say “I’d like my dog to not pee in the house” or “I’d like everything to be the same except that I was $1,000.000 richer”, but would my dog be the same “child”, and would I be the same person?
The more I think about it,the more I think The Weekly Smile will make a come back. Maybe starting October.
