INTRODUCTION (Repeated for those new to the series)

In an old loose leaf notebook, Thomas Kettering wrote when there was a cry from his heart. He wrote when his inner longing spilled over into the reality of his days. He did not write every day, only when he felt he must. How often he wrote or when is not important. The journey is what counts, for it is a diary about all of us, to all of us. “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step,” and even a stumble is a step.

Afternoon

We’re a nation in love with love. Everyone knows it isn’t gravity or the laws of the universe but love that makes the world go ‘round.

But what is love?

That it is; wonderful, captivating, exciting few will disagree.
But what is it:

The person who finally explains it rationally so it can be understood should have a statue raised in his (or her) honor. We think about nothing as much as this.

If I believed the water cooler gossip I guess the commercial that read “I’d rather than switch,” should be changed to “I’d rather switch than fight.”

Afternoon

We had a sales meeting this morning. We plugged in our mental and emotional intravenous tubes and waited for the surge. It’s Cheer Leading 101 for a group of adults who, without it stand around in their polyester pinstripes talking about what they’re going to do without ever doing it.

Orchestrated asininity was the theme of this morning’s meeting. George, forty-three years old and with us now for over half those years, is a great salesman and you’d think he should be able to teach what he able does.

However, the Peter Principle is alive and well. He really can’t cut it.

One-on-one, George may be a tiger. In front of a room full of other salespersons he acts like a tiger looking for a tank- to hide in.

Don’t let it bother you.” That’s what my assistant says and does, but then he doesn’t have my thinking machine. The cables in my own personal cranial computer don’t have pull-out plussea like most people’s.

They’re welded in and they’re always on glow and go.

My mental wiring system never gets a rest.

Even going in circles you always see something new the next time around.

It’s agony and ecstasy all at the same time. Cognitive conclusions tumbling over each other, interacting some living no longer than a moment, others rooting in to stay.

It’s eleven hours now since I sat in for an hour’s wasted time, but then, what is waste to me is another man’s feast. I in-grow, out-grow and dare not never-grow.
