    Your Internet is not Getting Slower

    Identity Decisions

    They shape identity.  Whether you spend lots of time thinking about them or not, your decisions shape who you become.  You are who you are today because of decisions that you’ve made.  You can probably think of decisions that you’ve made that have shaped your sense of identity and self.…

    Why A Watch?

    I recently got a watch as a gift.  It was a gorgeous watch.  It’s very cool looking.  I didn’t recognize the brand so I did a quick Google search for it.  It’s worth quite a lot.  It’s quite a nice watch. I have a few watches actually.  Nice watches.  They…
