Saturday, X is for xenophile…
I like people who are xenophiles.
Not too many embrace those who are different from themselves.
Often we learn to be wary of those who look and speak differently than we do.
Sometimes we are taught to think less of those who worship differently or have different customs than we do.
Then there are xenophiles.
They are people who are attracted to foreign people, cultures, and customs.
They like people who are different than themselves.
They are not afraid of the differences in lifestyles and beliefs.
Xenophile people rare.
Today, I think you are surprised I found “X” people I like.

Friday, W is for wonder…
I like people who are filled with wonder.
People who wonder are people who enjoy life.
They are not easily bored because they are curious about the world around them.
They find nature fascinating and learning fun.
They look a things and wonder how they work and why.
They look at people and wonder at the diversity.
People of wonderment are delighted with life and the complexities of it.
They see each day as a wonderful gift to be opened and explored.
Today, I think wonderment is a wonderful thing in a person.

Monday, M is for motivated motivators…
I like motivated people.
They not only talk about doing things they actually get things done.
And they tend to motivate others.
Sometimes just talking with someone who is motivated gets me moving beyond the thinking stage.
Not always…really not often…but sometimes.
Anyway, people who are motivated are excited about what they can do
and really don’t understand those who need motivating.
Motivated motivators never give up which is a good thing… but can drive some of us batty.
Without people who are motivated we would still be living in caves and walking everywhere.
Today, I think after I take a nap I will think about doing something that needs to get done. Maybe.

Friday, K is for know-how…
I like people with know-how.
They are people who are experts in a given field.
They are the ones you call when you don’t know-how to do something.
They have expertise in things that are inexplicable.
Like anything that starts with tech…
One thing those with know-how often are not expert is the English language;
especially those people with expertise in the things that start with tech…
When I need their know-how I need to know-how to use my expertise in patience.
Today, I think that’s all for K.

I may be a bit of a ditz.
But I know where I have been, where I am, and where I am going.
However, I may not always know what I am doing.
