Green coffee, anyone?

Happy St. Patrick's Day to everyone. This is usually a time of transition from winter to spring, so that's one reason to love the day. Being part Irish, I love the day 'just because.' I love the parade, I love corned beed and cabbage, I love the green grass sprouting up with drops of dew. I've never understood why it's turned into a day of getting plastered though. Like Marti Gras. To me, it's a day to see all things new and fresh. To enjoy life and nature. How about you, what do you do for St Patty's Day? Are you wearing green? Not yet? Pinch! Much luck to you, my friends in the year ahead.

Rub for good luck:



And here's a scene from Brigadoon. The magic town is located somewhere in Scotland, but some of the same Irish ideals apply.

  5. I love the way you associate the "green" St. Patty's day with Spring and all things that are now becoming green. I never really thought of it like that. :) Hope you are doing well!!

  11. You can't just ask customers what they want and then try to give that to them. By the time you get it built, they'll want something new.

    Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something - your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.

  13. Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome.
