Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone! I apologize for how long it's been since my last post. It's been quite an experience moving into our apartment!
We spent our first night in our apartment December 16th and it's been a slow process getting settled in since then. If we could say anything about it, we would sum it up as one huge learning curve in expectations.
I'll start with the cleaning. Everything is dirty. Everything. All the time. And for those of you who know me, you know I like a clean, well-kept home. So this has been my first reality check.
Michael took time off from work for my birthday and Christmas, but we had no idea we would be spending that entire time cleaning. I mean, I realize when you move into a new place there is always some cleaning to be done, but this reaches a whole other level.
I'll acknowledge that the amount of cleaning was so surprising partly because our apartment is quite large compared to what we had in the U.S. We lived in a 800-something square foot apartment back in Kansas. Upgrade that to a 2800-something square foot apartment and my cleaning regiment just increased by nearly four times.
But the bigger issue is that we live in a different environment now. Suburban America is very clean with virtually no pollution (I know, I know, you may think you have pollution, but trust me, you don't). The air quality in Delhi, on the other hand, is very poor. There are a number of reasons why, but the result is that all countertops and basically anything else with an exposed surface also has to be dusted on a daily basis. That includes the light switches, outlets, doors, plants, or anything else we leave out uncovered. Even our groceries must be wiped down before we put them away. Everything is coated in dust everywhere you go.
|The bottoms of my slippers at about the half-day mark
Delhi is also a very dirty place – as in literal dirt is everywhere. It gets on your clothes, your linens, your walls – everything. And because of that, our floors, which are entirely marble – with the exception of the laminate wood flooring in our master bedroom – requires daily mopping. And even though they may be mopped every morning, by the end of the day our slippers and socks are entirely black with dirt.
The bathrooms alone are a day-long job. We were told by one of our neighbors that he believes our apartment had been vacant somewhere around two years. And it was probably during that time that the hard water stains we have found in the bathrooms accumulated.
|The living room balcony
Of course the lack of drinkable water is probably one of the more notorious problems plaguing India, but the poor water quality is also hard on marble and other home fixtures.
Marble on average costs about $1-$3 a square foot in India, so it's the flooring of choice in most homes. It has a cool surface that makes it great for the sustained 120°F degree temperatures in Delhi – but it's easily etched and damaged by acid or calcium build-up from water. Unfortunately I've had to resort to using harsh chemicals to remove the stains in the bathrooms, which in turn has taken away the polish of the marble. But, I see that as a small price to pay in order to have clean bathrooms.
So the initial cleaning of our apartment has been an incredible task (and one that is still not complete). But whatever problems existed before didn't suddenly stop with our arrival either…
The second part of this whole moving-in process involves (and apparently will continue to involve) having various plumbing and electrical work done. I can count on one hand the amount of days we've gone without a repairman or representative from LG or Whirlpool or Daikin or Venus in our apartment. There is constantly someone working on a geyser (or what's officially known as a storage water heater), installing something, fixing leaks, tinkering with the electrical wiring, replacing an appliance or fixture, or more recently moving furniture into our apartment.
|Booze I found hidden under one of
the bathroom sinks
And unfortunately, they usually don't clean up after they've "completed" a job. We have been told that this might be due to the "nanny culture" that exists here. Even if you weren't affluent enough to have an Ayah as a child, you still had a mother or older sister who took on the task of cleaning up after you. So while it seems disrespectful (and oh believe me, I really struggle on this note), it simply does not even enter their mind that they should be responsible for the mess they make.
So there are almost always wet bootprints randomly left throughout the halls and rooms. If they've been working on a geyser, there are usually puddles of standing water that need to be squeegeed into a drain. When they installed the curtain tracks, they obviously needed to drill holes in the wall to mount the rods – but they didn't bother to sweep up the piles of wood and drywall all over the floor. Same story when the DSL was installed.
|Geyser explosion? Not to worry!
Ashley to the rescue!
Recently the pipe exiting the geyser in the kitchen burst from the wall, spewing gallons (liters, if you please) of water all over our dishwasher and microwave. In a matter of seconds we had water running under the kitchen door and out into the hallway coming towards the bedrooms and dining room. And if once wasn't enough, it happened again the following morning 5 minutes after the plumber had "fixed" the problem and left.
Throw into the mix communication barriers, incomplete or poor quality workmanship, people not arriving when they say they will, and you have your work cut out for you. Not to mention, nothing is just a quick fix. At any given time, there are at least four people involved in fixing a problem – and if they can shift responsibility to another party, they usually will. It all takes hours and multiple trips to the market so the repairmen can go to get "more parts".
|You put the pipe IN the hole. Simple,
right? WRONG.
And since you never know when a repairman will return, it makes it nearly impossible to plan to goto the store or leave the apartment. (Once again, this seems to be a symptom of the "nanny culture". Most people expect that even if the owners are not home, there will still be a household manager, or at the very least a housekeeper available to receive visitors or repairmen.)
So despite the fact we've been here since October, it just now feels like we're getting our feet wet (no pun intended!).
There are some mornings when we wake up, groan and say to ourselves: "I am sooo not in the mood for India today!" But looking at the big picture and not fixating on all the little things going wrong make a big difference. (All that talk about this being an investment and not just an experience is really hitting home.)
Our time here will be what we make it. Being intentional with taking our troubles to Jesus in prayer and letting His grace rule our lives is the only way, as far as I can see, to avoid becoming bitter or depressed. And thankfully God has supplied us with a close network of friends who are also going on this journey alongside us.
The good news is our ocean shipment from home is supposed to be delivered this Friday and the rest of our permanent furniture should arrive Saturday. It'll be like Christmas, except we know exactly what we're getting…… or will we? 😉

Jesus' Coming Exodus: As Told By Moses and Elijah
The Transfiguration account occurs in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and here in Luke. In each of these gospels it comes at the end of a sequence of events starting with the feeding of the 5,000, then the trip to Caesarea Philippi and Peter's confession, the revelation of Jesus that he was going to Jerusalem to be rejected, killed, and raised, a call to costly discipleship, and then a promise that some of the disciples would not die until they saw the Kingdom of God come in power. These events mark a turning point in the ministry of Jesus, whereas Luke notes, that from this time, He set His sights on Jerusalem.
Let us look into the account in Luke 9 and see what the Lord is teaching us in this passage.
Exposition of the Text
Luke tells us that the Transfiguration happened on the eighth day after he had promised some of them would not taste death until they saw the Kingdom come in power. This little detail links the statement to the Transfiguration and serves as the fulfillment of the promise He had made them. Jesus took three of His disciples up into a mountain to join Him in prayer. James, John, and Peter would be the same three disciples who would later be asked to pray with Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane in which they fell asleep.
Luke goes on to tell us that while Jesus was praying that his face was transformed before them, and His clothing became a dazzling white. Then is says that Moses and Elijah appeared beside Him and started conversing with Jesus. Most of your Bibles say that the topic of their conversation was Jesus' departure, death, or decease that was going to happen to Him at Jerusalem. Each of these translations are trying to translate the Greek word "exodus", which as we shall see is superior to all the other translations.
The next scene also reminds us of what would happen to them at Gethsemane. While Jesus was praying in agony, they kept falling asleep. So this is why the text said "while Jesus was praying" and not "while they were praying". But the brightness of the change in Jesus and the appearance of Moses and Elijah had awakened them. When they would be awakened at Gethsemane, it would be by the approach of Roman soldiers and the Temple police with Judas.
The scene the disciples saw was overwhelming. And as usual, Peter is the only one that opens his mouth. And Peter also shows himself to be unaware of the significance of the event. He suggested that they make three booths, one for Jesus and one each for Moses and Elijah. The problem with Peter's thinking was that he was making Jesus the equal to Moses and Elijah.
The text goes on to say that after Moses and Elijah left and Jesus was left alone that a cloud of glory came down and covered Jesus and the disciples, something which frightened them. Then they heard the voice of God call out to them and say: "This is My Son, the Chosen One. Obey Him!" After this, things returned to normal and they only saw Jesus who commanded them to tell no one.
Meaning of the Text
This text has often been preached along with what was going on at the bottom of the mountain. There the other disciples were struggling in vain to cast a devil out of a boy. When Jesus came down, He had to do this himself. When they asked Him why they couldn't, He answered that that kind of demon could only come out by prayer and fasting. So the connection that it made is that we come to church to be spiritually lifted and then go out to serve in the valley.
Although there is some practical value in this approach, I feel that this text makes a better connection to the suffering of Jesus. We have already seen this by the similarities between this account and the prayer of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane on the Mount of Olives. The fact that Jesus' face shone her which reminds us of how Moses' face shone after He had met with the LORD so brightly that Moses had to wear a veil. Here in this passage, the face of Jesus shines. The comparison to Gethsemane is that there Jesus' face was contorted in agony with sweat drops of blood coming from it.
Exodus 34 contains the account of Moses' shiny face in the wilderness. Luke uses several terms to remind us of the connection between Moses and His day and that of Jesus. The first is of course that Moses was one of the people who appeared with Him. Another was Peter's statement of the three booths. The word here is the same as the booths the people of Israel erected at the Feast of Tabernacles as temporary shelters to remind them of the experience of their ancestors in the wilderness.
The clinching comparison is Luke's use of "exodus" to describe the death or departure of Jesus that would soon happen in Jerusalem. The Book of Exodus describes the circumstances that led to the first Passover and the release of Israel from Egyptian Captivity. The book also describes their journey to Sinai and the receiving of the Law and instructions on how to build the Tabernacle. It also talks about Israel's rebellions against the LORD. By using the word "exodus" Luke wants us to link and compare Jesus' suffering and death to the Exodus.
By the way, this is why it is so vitally important to study the Old Testament. The New Testament be properly understood without it. If you will take the time to study it, it will help your understanding of the person and work of Jesus.
Application of the Text
This passage does give us a picture of what the Kingdom of Heaven will be like. Jesus taught elsewhere that the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob was the God of the living and not of the dead. Some have missed the point being made by saying that Elijah was carried to heaven in a fiery chariot alive. But the book of Deuteronomy clearly says that Moses died and God buried him. This clearly shows that Moses was alive, present, and able to converse with Jesus. Whether this was the soul of Moses or his soul and body is a subject of debate, but the Bible makes clear that in the Kingdom of God when it comes, we will have a glorified but also physical body.
This passage also reminds us that we are pilgrims and strangers in this world. Sometimes we get too comfortable in our houses, and it would do us some good to get out of them and make some time in a solitary place for prayer and to refocus on who we are. Christ is our Passover Lamb who died to set us free from the slavery to sin and our total inability to please God. Here the Father is pleased to see us in His son Jesus Christ with whom He is completely pleased.
The call to the disciples on the mountain was one to hear and obey the One that God had chosen. Their first chance to obey for Peter, James, and John when Jesus told them to tell no one until after His resurrection. If we had had such an experience and were told by the Lord to keep quiet about it, would we?
We also learn that there is a cost to follow Jesus. It isn't all glory. The passages before this one includes a call that if anyone is going to follow Jesus that they must deny themselves, take up their cross and follow Him. This does not mean coming down from a spiritual high to serve in difficult circumstances. It is true that life in the wilderness can be difficult, but it is not the same as a cross. Bearing the cross is not the same as having to put up with a difficult person or any such like. It is the surrender of your life to follow Jesus. And where Jesus has gone, His true disciples will follow.
The Transfiguration is preached on the Sunday before Lent on our Christian calendar. This coming Wednesday, we will mark the beginning of a forty day period in which we give extra emphasis to our spiritual conditions. These things may include prayer and fasting as well as time for Bible study. It reminds us of the 40 days Jesus spent in the wilderness. It is a time for us to consider well what Jesus has done for us as well as what He expects from us.
Paul reminds us that we will be raised with Him. This part of the promise we are all to eager to hear. We all want to see the Kingdom of God come in power. But we all too often forget what goes with this promise: "If we suffer with Him," There is not glory without first going to the cross. It was true for Jesus, and it is true for us also. Another "promise" of Scripture is that all who will live godly in Christ Jesus SHALL suffer persecution." Jesus says a servant is not above his Lord. If they persecuted Him, they will also persecute, you His servants. We would do well to remember this.
The path to glory can be excruciating at times. Yes the word "cross" is in the word excruciating. But like Jesus, endure the cross you are called to bear and run that race with patience. Look unto Jesus who has finished the race in our behalf and is now set down at the right hand of the Majesty on High, Jesus endured that cross and treated it with contempt. God has promised the glory. He gave a peek to three of His disciples, and through them to us. He promises in Hebrews 13:5 that He will never leave us or forsake us. This verse is so strong a promise in Greek that it is impossible to render its full power in English. If you are His, you will make it. God has promised.

My Music: from Moksha to Mania
"Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and charm and gaiety to life and to everything."— Plato
The Greek philosopher and thinker Plato poured his views on music eras back, which are relevant even today. Music has a power to overpower all that is good as well as bad. Music adds to more happiness when you're cheerful, similarly it melts the solidity of grief with its warmth and healing powers. Music has always been an inseparable part of my life whether I sing or listen to it.
I was 10 when I started learning Hindustani classical music, and while going through those Ragas and Raginis, I came across some strange facts about them, as they have a strong impact on human life as well as having some miraculous healing properties. It seemed quite illogical to believe, that by singing Raag Deepak, oil lamps could be lit automatically, or by singing Raag Malhaar, it starts raining without any indication of clouds prior to that. For an intelligent kid of 10, all those were mere old sayings, which were simply told to prove those theories about the power of music. I didn't know then, that time would make me experience such things which seem paranormal even today.
It was a February morning and a 15 year old me, was busy with my Riyaz (music practice) with Raag Bageshri. My Guru Jee was continuously scolding me for not putting up the right swaras (notes) of Madhyam 'Ma'. Irritated and agitated, my Guru Jee left my room murmuring— "I can't teach this girl the difference between Madhyam and Teevra 'Ma'." It was quite embarrassing for me being insulted by him as I was being praised by people for my beautiful voice. The poor me, didn't know what he was expecting from me, nothing but knowledge.
An offended me, wanted to show him that I was not that imbecile what he was thinking of me. So I thought of doing a riyaz of Raag Bageshri in a theoretical manner. Since I had read somewhere in my music theory books that Bageshri is a midnight raga so I started practicing it exactly at the midnight 12. Those were the much disciplined times (1983-84) when there was neither cable T.V. nor internet was existent, so midnight 12 was absolute peaceful with pin-drop silence.
I was learning bada khayal which used to take quite long to finish. I started singing and got so involved in it that I forgot about the time, about the people around, about the neighborhood getting disturbed and all other external factors. While singing 'Manmohan Shyam Sundar Roop', the Bandish which was my Guru's expertise, I entered into a complete 'trans' state-of-mind. Alaap… bol… taan… tarana……. the raga was going on and on and I forgot myself. My room, my taanpura, walls, furniture, everything got disappeared, it felt, and I was not even able to recognize myself.
Nadir… dir… ta…nita… dani… dheem… tana…dir…na…
And it seemed that I had encountered some mystical powers. I am an atheist and I don't believe in worshiping and performing rituals . Neither I believe in any super natural powers, but that feeling was indeed enigmatic. I can't express that enigma in words, as it seemed music was either infused in my soul or was incarnated in front of me. 'Twas a sublime experience, I'd never had before nor did I experience ever after. Music became a celestial body that day!
I didn't remember about how long did I sing that day, but when I opened my eyes up, my room was filled with broad daylight and my Guru Jee was sitting in our living room with my father. I saw an old man besides him, who said to my Guru Jee— "You fool! How could she be your shishya (pupil) ?" My Guru, Pdt. S.N. Pathak smiled softly yet kept quiet.
Later, I came to know that the old man was none other than my Guru's Guru, Pdt. Aditya Narayan Jha from Banaras Gharana, a noted khayal singer and renowned Hindustani classical music teacher. He himself wished to teach me and my father got simply elated as Jha Ji Sir was infamous for insulting and refusing students for teaching music even without listening to them. But I was the most fortunate of them all for having learnt music from a great teacher like him for the next four years.
Later, I had to bid adieu to classical music being entangled in the crude realities of life, like early marriage, study pressure, family, kids, responsibilities and what not! I couldn't even discuss my trance experience during riyaz with my Gurus, reason, their being too effervescent (or rather say arrogant) and me, being too shy and introvert.
But four years later while doing my graduation, I asked my philosophy teacher about that 'trans' feeling during music practice. She said— "Girl, you know what it was? You were quite close to Moksha. Saints and sages spent years of learning, self discovering and sacrificing worldly pleasures to achieve that very moment. And you were about to attain that 'salvation of your soul' !"
It's been almost 32 years since that incident occurred, my tanpura and harmonium have been left like skeletons (eaten away by mice) in the store room of my maiden home. I am no longer a practicing classical singer (I feel myself 'besuri ' if I try to), but music still resides in my soul. I hum Bollywood numbers, am addicted towards old classics, sing songs of Lata, Asha, Mubarak Begum, Anuradha Paudwal and almost all female singers.
I even try hard to touch Shreya Ghoshal's effortless high notes and harder to meet my daughter's high pitch falsettos. But, I was, am and will always be a music lover. Music, for me, is proved to be a silk route from Moksha to mania. Old classic movie songs make me weak and give me goose-bumps even in my late 40's. Today, music is an irresistible temptation for me and I still sing my heart out despite losing my pakad on sur.
सुर ना सजे, क्या गाउँ मैं?
सुर के बिना जीवन सूना |
And I have penned down a free-verse for how I feel about music— it's my obsession, my compulsion, so I lead a path from Moksha to mania with music.
Womanly, playful,
Sensuousness wraps me
Yet I'm revealed in its folds.
Drapes the myriad moods of me
And I look at its many incarnations.
Moksha? Impossible…!
Bewitching, beautiful,
Magnificence paints me
Yet I'm intrigued by its fads
Covers the dauntless spirit of me
And I adhere to its hasty emotions.
Mania? Possible…!
But, music resides in my soul. 😇
— Sangeeta Mishra

|Friday was always "Wear Your Best Hat to Court Day"
|It was the Comtesse de Trop's favorite day of the week.
Playing catch up, I added some Mary Chapin Carpenter videos to Wednesday's post in case you haven't heard her or have forgotten how great she is! I saw the Nashville Hall of Famer in DC in early days when she was playing at The Dubliner. Yahoos were yakking and clanking, yet she held her own.
Kurt Vonnegut.
And on the subject of burning books: I want to congratulate librarians, not famous for their physical strength or their powerful political connections or their great wealth, who, all over this country, have staunchly resisted anti-democratic bullies who have tried to remove certain books from their shelves, and have refused to reveal to thought police the names of persons who have checked out those titles.George Bernard Shaw:
So the America I loved still exists, if not in the White House or the Supreme Court or the Senate or the House of Representatives or the media. The America I love still exists at the front desks of our public libraries.
All censorships exist to prevent anyone from challenging current conceptions and existing institutions. All progress is initiated by challenging current conceptions, and executed by supplanting existing institutions. Consequently, the first condition of progress is the removal of censorship.

Buncrana tragedy: The calm strength of a mother, daughter, sister and partner left bereft
Surrounded by people and yet almost completely alone, Louise James stood at her gate to welcome home the remains of the lights of her life.
It had only been two days before that her family had left the bungalow, their entire focus only on spending a carefree sunny spring day together amidst the glorious panorama of Lough Swilly.
Now all Louise had left was her four-month-old baby, Rionaghac-Ann, the sole survivor of the worst disaster in many years to befall the Inisowen community.
It was shortly after midday that the long and winding procession of five hearses slowly made its way up the hill at St Eithne's Park.
The modest housing estate is built on the very last outposts of Derry city as it begins to peter out into the rolling green hills of the countryside. The coffin of her beloved partner, Sean McGrotty (49) - who had "lived for the wains and wee Louise" - was first to be taken into the house. Louise was calm and authoritative as she walked in the wake of those who carried him.
The little white coffins of the two boys, Evan (8) - who suffered from muscular dystrophy - and Mark (12), were next. Each coffin was heartbreakingly feather-light and each time, Louise herself insisted on being amongst the party that carried them in their arms.
In the depths of her despair, her courage was immense.
Throughout her ordeal, as she brought home the remains of each individual she had loved and cherished above all others, she maintained a luminous calm strength that was almost supernatural.
Nobody could even begin to imagine the pain and devastation she endured. She had told parish priest Fr Paddy O'Kane that was she was "lost, destroyed" and that Rionaghac-Ann was her only reason to continue.
The next white coffin was that of her teenage sister, Jodie Lee (14) - described by her school principal at St Mary's College as a "quiet, hardworking and beautiful young girl who was always smiling".
Again, Louise insisted on helping to carry her inside, and outside the bungalow, Jodie Lee's teenage friends burst into wails of desolation, comforted by their mothers.
Last came the coffin of her darling mother, Ruth (59), described by neighbours as "a lovely, hardworking woman who had loved her style".
The undertaker quietly asked Louise if she was able for this but, once again, she was determined and taking her place amongst the coffin bearers, lifted its weight onto her shoulder and huddled together in small knots of grief, the neighbours and friends wept.

Their faces were blank in disbelief, the shock at what had occurred only slowly beginning to sink in at the sight of the swathe of coffins.
"Heartbreaking," whispered an elderly lady in anguish.
And then the family were left alone with their close friends to mourn their loved ones in private.
The horror of the tragedy in Buncrana has left the two communities numb with grief.
In the early morning, the scene at Buncrana pier was quietly visited by fire brigade personnel who had taken part in the rescue and recovery operation, in an attempt to begin to process their own private thoughts.
A middle-aged woman was there before them, lost in grief as tears rolled down her face. The night before, a counselling session had been held for members of the Lough Swilly RNLI crews who had taken in the rescue - many of whom have children of a similar age to those who died.
A book of condolence had been opened at the Church of the Holy Family where the funeral will take place tomorrow, while at St Eithne's school, where the two boys had been pupils, bunches of daffodils had been tied to the railings, along with a small, neatly written note in a child's handwriting, saying: "Evan, you had a smile to light up everybody's day."

I like my doctor, so I agreed to give it a try...and I haven't slept since. Ok, I've slept a little, but not much: I may have gotten four hours of real sleep in the last 48. Whew.
That might explain why, as I tossed and turned at 2AM this morning, I kept coming up with the same burning question: "How would baby chickens & turkeys react to an iPhone in their brooder box?" Such questions demand an answer, and here it is:

We've snapped this photo... in this same onesie... three babies running.
Really does work out SO well when all babies are born at pretty much the same time of year!!!
Nashers was quick to reach for and grab a twix - such a great, classic choice. :))
There is no way that we need even 1/2 this much candy for our trick or treaters - it was all purely for the photo op.
And since this has pretty much just turned into a very sporadic photo blog - here are a few shots from the past week and Nash's first trip to our favorite local "beach pumpkin patch"...
...TriPod sitting for about 30 seconds at just a few days after 5 months.
...Smell My Feet!!! He is all ALL about the feet these days. & So much more than I remember either of the other two boys being.
& my favorite OTHER two pumpkins. They are both SO great at making the littlest laugh when needed. It's like instant entertainment.

How To Acknowledge The Existence Of Karma In Our Lives.
Karma, a scenario.
Acknowledge the existence of Karma.
- Your life seems to be one twist and turn after another.
- You believe you are being tested at every turn.
- You ask why nothing seems to go right anymore?
- You question every decision you now make.
-You want more but don't know how to create a better life.
You have heard so much about Karma, but don't really know what it means. You decide to go in search of yourself in order to find what is missing and learn to stop things going wrong in your life. Does it mean you have to find God?
I don't believe you do have to find God, but what I now do believe is that there is something out there which is testing us. Giving us situations and making things happen in order to make us learn from our mistakes. Making us stronger. We all need and have a purpose whilst we are here on this planet. The fact is that many of us will never know what was meant for us. We don't know what has been mapped out for us until we find it.
If we all have a purpose for being here on earth then it is in our interests to search and find what it is we were put here to do. This is my belief, but sadly may not be your's so please read on so I can tell you what I have found. Hopefully you too will recognise that there is a thing out there which moves us in a certain direction. The only thing is, will we follow that direction or work against it because we believe the path is not right for us? Decide for yourself as I tell of my findings.
Reading is a great leveller.
Apart from educating you, reading can bring you down to earth with a great bump. For many years I have known that there is a reason why we are led along to do certain things. We are led by our instincts, gut feelings, which we either choose to go along with or bury along with all the other decisions we ignore.
I have always believed that what goes around comes around. If you are honourable in your dealings with people, they will be honourable in their dealings with you. And, for the most part I think this has some bearing on how we conduct ourselves throughout life.
That is until we reach a point in life, where, we think that something is not right and the decisions we are making seem to be taking us down the wrong path. Why is this? Our dealings and the way we treat others have been correct, yet things keep going wrong no matter how hard we try to make things better.
Recently I was reading a book about success. I have actually reviewed this book in an article a few months ago.http://poshcoffeeco.hubpages.com/hub/A-Visionary-Business-Book-review. Now, this book has become something of a bible to me as it speaks so much truth and I can relate it to my own life.
In chapter 11 it gives what I see as an introduction into Karma and talks about the mystical and spiritual side of business. It tells how we are all capable of magic if we follow a certain code in our business and personal dealings.
How can we use Karma to our advantage in life as well as business?
Karma, as you may well know happens as a result of what we believe, think and do to others around us. Simply it means 'what goes around comes around' in my own view. There are loads of quotes of which I am sure you will know to do with Karma so I will spare you the pain of me listing them all.
In short if you do good to others, they, in turn, will do good to you. The person who has no concept of Karma and ignores what Karma can do will be met with hardship, tragedy and misery until they recognise this and do something about it.
BINGO! That is where I am right now. I haven't gone out of my way to hurt or hinder people over my lifetime, but I will admit that my dealings with people close have not always been carried out the way I should have allowed. You see, you can choose your friends, but you can't choose your family. Suffice to say this is where I may have been going wrong and I have been attracting negative energy because of this.
All this being noted then made me realise that I needed to find what my purpose in life is. After searching out all posiibilities I found what I have been looking for and a map to follow to make sure that I can keep on track. All it takes is a little time, some reading and ACTION to put what I am and have already learned into action. It also means that I have to follow what I know and believe is the right path for me to follow.
Using Karma to your advantage.
If you learn something about Karma, you can then use it to your advantage in both everyday life and in your business dealings or work life.
Quite simply all you need to do is turn your life over to and accept help from another source. One which we don't know enough about. Let's just say it is a mystery, but something does guide us to do the things we do. I like to call it the UNIVERSE . I am now learning each day to hand problems and situations over to this somewhat higher power in the hope that it will draw positive energy to me so long as my intentions to people and situations are well meant.
It sounds too simplistic, I know, but it does seem to take the focus of what you do and allow you to take guidance from yourself even though it is obviously coming from elsewhere. I hope I am making it easy to follow. If not then I would suggest that you buy the book I am talking about in the hope that it could have the profound effect on you as it has on me.
I have read it a number of times, but just cannot get past this 11th chapter. I keep reading and re- reading and it just makes more and more sense everytime I read it. This is why it is the basis of my personal and business dealings from now on. Through this I found my purpose and will continue to work with it until it finally get's me what I want and where I want to be.
You have acknowledged the existence of Karma and it is time to use it to benefit others first, then you.
Reading this book each day has made me realise that I have to do things each day which is going to benefit others which will in turn benefit me. This is my purpose in life through my writing in many ways. Helping people who read my articles is my vehicle to get what I want out of life. You see the biggest thing I am looking for is the single largest thing that a man could ever want.......................
Freedom to choose what I want to do with my life and not to be told by someone else when and when not I can or can't do something. We are all born free and this is how we should end up.
To be free and have the time to choose what to do you have to have enough of the folding stuff to allow this to happen. Hence the reason why I am pursuing an avenue which has a good chance of making this happen for me. By writing articles and having the chance to profit more than once for the work that I have done once, is the way we all need to go. Writing an article once is a job well done, but we have the opportunity to create residual income from royalty payments for as long as the article is out there in cyber space. That is a powerful thought and is a road where we should all go down to ensure we get the freedom we deserve and crave.
By teaching this to others I hope it will happen for me.

A message from poshcoffeeco.
I cannot stress enough what a profound effect the book Visionary Business, An Entrpreneurs Guide has had on me. It has totally changed my outlook on the way I look at life and work, business. If you desire the same things that I have described in this article and my review of the book, then you should not only buy it, but study it carefully and change your life for the better. It has never happened to me before whilst reading a book, but this one really has become my bible. I hope it does the same for you.
Good luck and I hope you find your purpose.
Kind regards and thanks for reading and, I hope commenting below.

I've always sort of believed in Karma, but I think I need to more actively embrace it. Great hub!
I really enjoyed reading this inspiring hub of yours. I do believe in Karma, and reaping what you sow. Up, beautiful and interesting.
I am a huge believer in karma. I try to live a good life but have no problem treating people in a positive manner. I believe what you send out causes a ripple effect and the positive results are awesome.
Love the write, love the attitude and love the way you think.
Excellent hub. Keep doing the right thing and treating others the way you like even if they do you wrong. You can't change people but your reaction to them yes
Thanks for really good food for thought. I am not considering entrepreneurship but I do believe in Karma. Thanks for your testament to it and this reinforces doing right by others for me.
We were both brought up on the Biblical maxim "do unto others as you would have done unto you".
In business terms, this means acting with honesty, transparency and consistency.
Our experience has been that when other people know that we always try to act honorably, then we are usually treated well. Of course this is not ture 100% of the time.
We would't call it Karma, but maybe it amounts to the same thing.
This hub is voted up, interesting , it's twittered and shared.
I do believe in Karma as well. If you put good out into the universe, you will get the same in return. Well written, I vote up and awesome.
It stinks to treat people how you would want to be treated but they don't reciprocate. In that way, I hope that Karma will in time bring good things to me and also bring them down a notch or two as they deserve. I enjoyed your hub. Very interesting. I may have to read the book, too. Very good review. Many votes!
I love this and the quote on the wall. I believe is from a country song I also love! I am very pleased to share this on twitter, google+, facebook & with followers!
Steve, thank you. This is wonderful and so very calming. I too believe in karma, what goes around does come around. I loved your saying, "You see, you can choose your friends, but you can't choose your family". Beautiful and inspiring. Happy Birthday.
By the way I would love to talk some time about the different cultures there and here in the US
I have found over the years that I have always stopped to help with changing tires and things like that. and every time I have ever needed help someone has been there to provide it. Great hub but then all your hubs are LOL
I believe in Karma. Thank you for writing a thought provoking article. It seems like some who put greed above anything else never has bad Karma, but it will happen. The Golden rule applies here. Cheers
I believe if Karma and think it is going to be good for you. Thank you for sharing this. Voted up.
Thought provoking hub Steve, am just starting on this journey myself. I wish you well.
I didn't get into the ideas behind karma until my life hit a downward spiral and I needed to evaluate myself. I'm fascinated with our universe and the mystery behind it. Thank you for sharing this great hub, I enjoyed it very much. Voted up and interesting (:
I acknowledge Karma....I appreciate and respect the existence of Karma. I exprience it nearly every day in some way or another...and have never seen it fail us.
Wonderful hub....Up and awesome.
Good hub, but I think you really have to be open enough to let it help you. At the moment I'm not in that place right now.
Voted up, useful and interesting.
Thanks for publishing this very thought-provoking article.
I like what you wrote..."By writing articles and having the chance to profit more than once for the work that I have done once, is the way we all need to go." This sounds like the *one to many" approach we have been discussing in my household.
You're going to succeed. I know you are.
I'm going to succeed. I don't doubt it at all.
Hi Steve,
Interesting read. Not sure about the whole karma thing. Good luck to you and hope it works for you.

Unveiled at CES 2015 in Las Vegas, the StandStand is a standing desk solution unlike any on the market today. The modular stand transforms any surface or into an ergonomic workspace that is perfect for those who don't enjoy sitting in one spot all day.
When creating a vertical workspace, many can face limitations like permanent standing desk solutions that leave little room for customization. In the case of StandStand, the product allows users to create a temporary design solution that will improve posture and circulation.
Overall, the solution allows users to balance their sitting and standing time evenly. StandStand is crafted out of three plywood pieces that create a compact laptop stand or elevated standing desk solution. The product will be available in two styles, a birch and a bamboo that will range from the $69 to the $99 rate.

Lament and Curse bring us into the modern era, plus a look back at some incredible official remixes.
12 Responses to "VGMpire Episode 33 – CastleMania Vol 4"
I'll start out this comment by stating that it's 1:18 AM here, and I haven't listened to the episode yet. Still, I'll comment before I get some sleep.
I love the Castlevania series, all the titles, I even derive a weird sort of enjoyment from Judgement, despite how shitty it is (Dracula's "Where are you looking!" comes to mind). This 4 podcast run on Castlevania has been a fantastic journey through some of my favourite music ever, and it reminded me of the wonders of the castle. I first came to Castlevania for 3, and I stuck ever since, so I know a fair amount about the series.
I feel I must mention 2 songs that stood out as missing (you may have mentioned them though, so ignore if you did):
-Ending, from Super Castlevania 4
This song is fantastic, though I can see why you chose to leave it out. It has a kind of odd, repeating theme through it, so that the music doesn't really end. But it's a great piece of music, so I feel it deserves a mention.
-Into the Dark Night, from Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow
I feel personally that this is the one of (if not) the best boss themes from a Castlevania game done so far. The DS sound capabilities aren't the greatest, but they're still pretty good, and this song in particular stands out to me as one of the best.
The monsters of Castlevania always stood out to me as a defining aspect of the game, with all the monsters from all across mythology having been put in the castle to defend it from the Belmonts. Each unique monster gave me something new to look at, and all the enemies have something interesting about them! The vast variety is one of the biggest draws to the game.
Anyway, I just wanted to say a few things, because this series of podcasts really got to me. I'll always love Castlevania, and the very concept alone gets me wanting to play the series all over again. I thank you personally, Brett, for giving me another reason to go back to all those great games that shaped my experiences growing up. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
I too was hoping for "Into the Dark Night" from the episode before. Funny you mention it though, I recently wrote a feature about Konami's infamous orchestral hit sound that permeates that particular track and many others: http://www.pixelitis.net/features/liner-notes-viii-konamis-infamous-orchestral-hit
That track's orchestral hits amidst that slap-happy bass guitar and double-bass drumming is so freaking epic.
CV4's ending is fantastic too. It's a really moving piece that's filled with resolve, but at the same time sadness: you conquered Dracula, but a phenomenal game has come to its conclusion.
This whole Castlevania run was highly enjoyable, thanks for dedicating a month to it. I noticed you left out Lords of Shadow, but to be honest the only memorable music from it for me were the music box cameo of "Vampire Killer" and "Waterfalls of Agharta" which references CV4's "Waterfall."
I too enjoyed Lament of Innocence despite its shortcomings. And despite CV64's mediocrity, it remains a guilty pleasure of mine (the music was good though, particularly "Dungeon ~ Main Theme").
"House of Sacred Remains" and "Abandoned Castle" both continued the idea within Castlevania that one of the first tracks you hear during gameplay has to sound freaking awesome and pump you up. I can't think of a single Castlevania game that doesn't have a stellar first level track.
I noticed some similarities to Curse of Darkness' "Eneomaos Machine Tower" and Dawn of Sorrow's "Cursed Clock Tower." I guess it would make sense since Yamane composed both of them.
Finally, I recommend that everyone check out Vomitron's metal Castlevania medley for some more remix bliss: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRfVKrC0nfc
Looking forward to whatever VGM you'll bring to the table next month (Lunar? Mario RPG? Jet Set Radio? Breath of Fire? Double Dragon Neon? *wink wink nudge nudge*).
very good episode, features some of the best castlevania music i've heard over the past few episodes. i particularly liked the last few tracks on this episode.
have to mention though, theres a musical duo i'd like to bring to your consciousness, Mr. Brett.
Super Guitar Bros. theyre very talented and since most of their covers are exactly the music you've already covered on the show, I feel they definitely defintely deserve a shoutout.. or something. check em out!
I listened to all of these while playing Dark Souls, and somehow every single song played matched up with what I was doing in game.
Castlevania's music is good to me.
[…] Lament and Curse bring us into the modern era, plus a look back at some incredible official remixes. LISTEN NOW […]
I never really got into the series but acknowledged the renowned quality of the music. Not having nostalgia towards the games kept me from seeking out the music itself, as there's just so much of it that I was discouraged from going through it all. Your knowledge of and personal experiences with the material brings it to life for me, as I experience a new (imagined?) nostalgia vicariously through your stories.
So, thank you, for being an insightful and passionate guide.
(I'm definitely playing SOTN, at least!)
I was waiting – this whole series – for you to play something off the Dracula X Remixes CD. I'm glad you snuck in one track there at the end, although I would say that the track Cemetery of Rainbow represents that album better than Vampire Killer.
Either way, awesome series! I look forward to another theme month if you ever get around to it. If Final Fantasy is too huge to pack into a month, might I recommend Persona?
Hey Brett I would like to thank you for ROCKTOBER! I have only played symphony of the night and recently Castlevania 1 which was brutally challenging. I couldnt help but here your dilemma in dealing with final fantasy music, and I may have a solution. First off I am a massive FF music buff and I would also struggle to make an episode to showcase all of Uematsu's great scores. So my solution is why don't you do a month like special with Castlevania (and I appreciate how busy your life is : P) and split the music into "types" aka an episode devoted to battle music, an episode devoted to overworld / airship / field music, an episode devoted to speical themes within each game (terras theme (VI) theme of love (IV) aeriths theme (VII) etc etc) and finally episode where you highlight all the great remix work out there e.g OCRemixes forthcoming balance and ruin project (FF VI), the black mages, earthbound papas etc.
Sorry for the awful layout/grammar its rather early in the morn where I come from : P
So, this comment goes for all four episodes, since it seemed silly to go back and post on each individually. Actually, let's just say it goes for every episode you have and will do.
This show is great, and you are great for doing it.
Please keep up the good work.
Now, on to specifics. Castlevania has been a series near and dear to my heart for many many years. I played the crap out of pretty much every game in the series, save a few of the 3D ones. It was nice seeing Bloodlines get a shout out, as no one else I've ever met has even realized that was a game in the series, and it had some great music. I was also really glad to have had more frequent VGMpire, even if it is only for this month. It's definitely my favorite of this little family of podcasts, and I'm always ready for more.
Just got done listening to the last episode and the new one is up, nice
Thank you for the Castlevania tribute on VGMpire. I am another one of those Castlevania buffs from all the way back to the first NES game who used to record the background music off of the cart to a cassette.
I thought you did a great job with the format, covering nearly everything over 25 or so years. I especially appreciated that you included Lament of Innocence. I get the impression that the Castlevania community at large really doesn't appreciate that game much, but it is one of my personal favorites, especially the music.
While I really enjoyed your show, it also makes me very sad. Throughout Iga's run I could count on a new CV game nearly every October for close to a decade. Here it is, almost Halloween, and no new game in site, and I just know I will be disappointed with the Lords of Shadow sequels, as they seem to have completely abandoned the roots of the series.
Hey guys. Great choice with Castlevania, some of the most memorable game music ever created. Just wanna say I love the podcast and long may it continue. Brett, your enthusiasm for the subject shines through.
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

Your sweetheart is one of life's most precious gifts. They are the person you laugh with, cry with, and tell your secrets. They are your best friend. And because of this, they are witnesses to your best days and your worst.
It's no wonder within this relationship we can experience the greatest joys along with the biggest frustrations, anger, and sorrow.
A great relationship must be built over time, brick by brick, to establish peace, success, and happiness. Happiness in marriage is not a matter of coincidence or chance. It's the daily and diligent working by both parties. I love Gordon B. Hinckley's quote from his book, "Stand a Little Taller." In it he writes:
"True love is not so much a matter of romance
as it is a matter of anxious concern
for the well-being of one's companion."
With this perspective of devotion and service, there are life lessons we can learn on strengthening our relationship and marriage with our sweethearts. These 7 phrases to never to say to your sweetheart are unfortunately common in today's language.
I will be the first to admit I am guilty of using #5, but I am trying to become better. Although this list is not inclusive, and if you find yourself using one or more phrases, don't feel guilty but be willing to change to strengthen and build your relationship with your spouse.
7 Phrases to Never Say to Your Sweetheart:
1. "Whatever you want to buy…"
It's wonderful to think of the possibility of giving our sweethearts everything and anything they could want. However, this phrase and promise do our spouse a disservice. There are times when we wish we could buy them the latest toy and gadget we see them longingly wishing for.
However, if finances don't allow it, then by giving them what they want is putting financial strain and pressure on the relationship. Sometimes the sweetest words we can tell our sweetheart is, "I'm sorry, but we can't afford it right now."
2. Uh – huh
I understand some questions we will ask each other will require a yes/no answer. The repetition of the phrase "uh-huh" among others (such as 'sure, yup, whatever you say', etc.) is a sign of not listening. Never let life become so busy that you start neglecting time with the one who matters the most.
3. You told me that…
Using this phrase is a "storytelling" phrase. There is no winner when someone uses this phrase. Either the person will repeat what they think the person told them OR the other person won't remember what they said. This phrase is frequently used at the beginning of an argument.
4. You acted like I…
Telling someone what their interpretation is without consulting them first is like walking into a dark room with stairs, blindfolded. This is another storytelling phrase where an argument is likely to ensue.
The rule in any relationship is to ask before assuming anything. If the level of trust is there, then the other person should not be afraid to express themselves. Don't be afraid to ask, "you looked uncomfortable at Sally's place, did I embarrass you somehow" (as an example).
5. I don't need help
You and your sweetheart are on the same team. You're each other's biggest cheerleaders and advocates. Use and ask for their help, especially if they offer it freely. I understand it's hard to ask for help. I grew up very independent and lived on my own for quite a few years before marrying my spouse.
He will even tell you I am the most stubborn person he's met. He's always asking, "what can I do to help" and for a long time this would frustrate me.
I would tell myself lies and think, "I shouldn't have to ask, you should already know." One day this subconscious thought of mine slipped out. He looked at me and said, "Men can't read women's minds. I don't know what to do to help. I would rather do what you need doing then something that can wait."
This open communication changed our relationship for the best. I will admit I still struggle to ask for help, but I am doing my best to make a conscious effort to be better.
6. I'm okay
Please don't use this phrase when you're not okay. I know it's difficult to talk about something when you're in the middle of processing your emotions. Instead of saying, "I am okay" and leaving your spouse worried and wondering what's on your mind, you could say, "something is bothering me, but I need a few minutes to myself to think. I will talk to you about it when I'm ready." Then follow through with your commitment.
7. Fine
I love and hate the word "fine" because of its rather large scale of interpretation. My husband once confided in me that this is his least favorite word in the human language. When I say, "fine" whether he's asking how I'm doing or how I liked 'XYZ' he isn't sure if I'm doing okay, or if he needs to go out and buy chocolates because of something he did. He's been around enough women to know what when a girl uses the word "fine" the man is likely to be in trouble.
The best thing two sweethearts can do for each other is open and honest communication. As the door of communication is open and there is less misunderstanding the relationship you two have with each other will be strengthened.

Six players set to have big influence on intriguing clash
Gusserane O'Rahilly's will face Glynn-Barntown in this year's Tom Doyle Supplies Senior football championship final in Innovate Wexford Park on Sunday (3.30 p.m.).
Here we take a look at six players to keep an eye on.
Gusserane are backboned by a number of players who have featured inter-county both at under-age and adult levels.
Graeme Cullen: Graeme will line-out at centre-back and will captain the side. Having played for Wexford in all grades, his career has been somewhat interrupted through injury, but being injury free this year he has proved an inspiration to his side. Slotted in at centre-back, he is accomplished and tidy, while also bringing real talent to his game.
Páraic Conway: A player who has come up through the ranks having developed his talents in Good Counsel College, Páraic is a fast and accomplished attacker, with an ability to pick off crucial goals. The wing-forward has been prominent all through and will look to continue his form in this final.
Adrian Flynn: Flynn is one of his side's most experienced players and showed what he brings by scoring four points, three from play, out of midfield in the semi-final. He is in the engine room for his side and one can expect another impressive performance.
In their battle for a second Senior football title, Glynn-Barntown bring an ideal blend of youth and experience.
Michael O'Regan: The big attacker will be expected to dominate proceedings similar to that of the semi-final victory over St. Martin's. He contributed eight points, five from frees, of his side's semi-final tally of 2-12, an indication of his importance to the side. Will bring all his experience to the table in what is expected to be a tough battle for his side.
Robert Dempsey: The corner-forward can lay claim to be one of the most dangerous inside forwards in the championship. He will look to bring his speed and finishing flair to the game to trouble the opposing full-back line. Will be expected to make a big contribution to his side's bid for victory.
Michael Doyle: The tall midfielder is a rock at the heart of the Glynn-Barntown title bid. An accomplished footballer, strong in the air, and carrying an ability to bring the ball forward, the outcome of his duel with Adrian Flynn could have a real bearing on the eventual destination of the title.
The last weekend of September was a difficult time for the family along with our extended family with the passing of my niece, Niamh Cleary (nee Furlong), following a serious illness.
Daughter of Tony and Angela, Niamh a former pupil of Mayglass N.S. and Bridgetown Vocational College, played ladies' football with St. Fintan's, and later went on to develop a passion for motor rallying with her husband, Emmet, and four-year-old son, Josh.
As Niamh's uncle, I could not have been more proud at the manner in which the G.A.A. turned out in support of the families on such a sad occasion.
Everyone was shocked and saddened at the loss of a young life, as Niamh had just turned 30 on September 12 last. This was borne out in the huge crowds that attended the house in Ballymitty over the weekend and also at the funeral Mass on Monday.
The support received from each and every strand of people from the G.A.A. to neighbours and friends was so much appreciated in what was such a hugely sad occasion for everyone. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a h-anam dílis.
An incident-free weekend can be attributed to the excellent handling of the major hurling games in Innovate Wexford Park. Certainly there seems to be an extra pep in the step of match officials, while one also noticed an immense improvement in the officiating of linesmen.
Gearóid McGrath handled the Oylegate-Glenbrien and Crossabeg-Ballymurn tie without any real fuss, giving him five out of five, while in the second semi-final Kilmore official Dan Crosby in his first major game also kept firm control, with four out of five.
Niall McDonald, a controversial penalty decision apart, was efficient in his handling of Oulart-The Ballagh and Ferns St. Aidan's, giving him four out of five. John Carton kept a tight hold of a teak-tough Cloughbawn/Glynn-Barntown semi-final with no controversial decisions of note, leaving him with five out five.

Easy Ham and Cheese Rolls
So there has been this fixation on bread making on my part for some time last month (check the cinnamon rolls) and I grew tired of making sweet bread. What can I say, it's a "too much of a good thing" situation.
So there has been this fixation on bread making on my part for some time last month (check the cinnamon rolls) and I grew tired of making sweet bread. What can I say, it's a "too much of a good thing" situation.
There are so many bloggers and restaurants out there that are not well-represented online. Yes, there are social media channels that let them connect with their clients but it's limited because you cannot establish a concrete brand using those platforms.
Hello hungry ones, our topic for today is Navigational Menu. First things first: What is a navigational menu? You see those words underneath the logo? That.
Hello, hungry ones. If you're like me, you're hungry for more blog readers. I admit that I am a slave to numbers at this game called online marketing. You know what the trick is? Having good content.
One of my weaknesses as a human being is my love for sweets – and that includes sweet breads. Cinnamon rolls are not an exception. I love the sweet, sticky goodness in every bite. But I didn't really like it before, it was an acquired taste.
I used to think I was immune to UTI. In fact, I prided myself to be the only woman in the family not to have experienced the whole ordeal – my aunts had it, my cousin (younger than me) and my mom contracted the disease.
This is by far my favourite smoothie as it has green tea that zaps calories. The cucumber also makes me feel summery and refreshed, boosting my mood! And what can go wrong with a sugar-free pick-me-up? Enough hyphens, give this a go!
Kimchi noodles is a lifesaver (okay dinner saver). It's so simple, filling, healthy and DELICIOUS. I am not a fan of hot and spicy food, but kimchi is an exception. Even if it can be smelly, the complex flavours of the fermented cabbage trump it all (no pun intended).
What do you give someone who has everything? That's the difficult question most of us have to face sometimes. Don't fret, we got your back! We have boxes of organic cookies for you.
Being alone can sometimes be sad but most of the time, it's liberating as it allows you to visit the depths of your mind that are normally out-of-bounds, drowned by the chatter and expectations of society. It can be meditative too.

Promoting Your Blog Offline – T-shirts and Business Cards
Today I was IMing (instant messaging) with a friend of mine on Facebook and I mentioned that I was wearing my "Blogging Idol Shirt" and he said, "Where did you get it?" I told him I made it and I wear it proudly. Thanks again to all of you who helped me earn that title. I took this self-portrait with my Blackberry while we were chatting and sent it directly to Facebook … how easy that was.
Well, what I was telling him was how much attention I get while I'm wearing that shirt i made @Print My Polo Shirts … people asking me what's Blogging Idol … and it's a perfect opener for telling them what I do online. The problem is that I don't carry any business cards so once I explain what I do … it's difficult to invite them to my blog …because I'm not prepared. I'm going to be putting in my order for my FREE business cards through Vista Print and you should too. You can pay a few bucks more to upgrade and such … and they'll try to "upsell" and to sell you a bunch of add-on products but their offer for their free cards is great!
So … two lessons here … one see if you can come up with a shirt (or something wearable) that will lead to conversation about your blog … and then be prepared with business cards!
Do you have anything you carry or wear in public that is a conversation starter for your business? Do you carry business cards? Have you ever tried Vista Print's free card offer? Are you good about inviting others to view your blog? Let's share some ideas about what works OK? *SmiLes* Suzanne
P.S. A huGe thanks to my urban development consultants and friend Mark McClinton for designing my cards .. i'll post them once they're done – he's awesome and very reasonable so go to his site and contact him for a quote http://northstargenesis.com.P.S. Would you like some help making money online? Did you know that sites like Amazon and eBay will pay you to help them sell items that are listed for sale on their site? I can show you how I do it k?
