: SOME TIPS ON SHARING: Share what touches you. Share what you have a passionate interest about. Listen to what people are asking so that you can have the best dialogue with them. Remember, the whole point to this exercise is to build communication. Let's try this out and see what happens. Let's see if we can make any new connexions. : Later, Bill : : *************** : : Today, while I was about one third of the way through my pancakes, I suddenly realized that many of us have entire interests that we are truly excited about. each of us is an armchair expert in lots of little things. i was thinking how we go through life living our lives in layers and how we often know people without knowing about their layers of interest. I guess what I'm proposing here is a sort of information sharing concept. If anyone has a field of knowledge or area of expertise that they would like to share with another, here is an idea. Why don't you make a list of what those areas are, and then others can look and see if there is anything that they might want to learn about, or share with you. for instance, there might be two people on the board here who have real thing for SHRINKY-DINKS, and unless there is a forum to get this interest known, you might go your whole lives missing out on that common link. It could be LONE RANGER TRIVIA or HOW TO BUILD GEODESIC EXOTIC PET-HOUSES......who knows? Why don't we post our lists.....just think of these lists as tools for us to get to know each other better....conversation starters.... : : : : BILL'S INTEREST LIST : : religion : : Judaism : : Christianity : : Catholicism : : Orthodoxy : : Methodism : : Hinduism : : Halloween : : Christmas : : The Inklings : : The PreRaphaelites : : Chagall : : Warhol : : Rocks and Minerals : : Tropical Fish : : Salamanders : : Brasil : : The Americas : : Barcelona : : Ganesh : : Momotaro : : movies : : icons : : mandalas : : medicine wheels : : sand paintings : : Lakota : : Native American : : Black Elk : : Thich Nhat Hanh : : prayer : : meditation : : Kerala : : Goa : : India : : Christians in the arts : : Joy Electric : : Danielson : : Sam Phillips : : New Wave : : Easter : : Curitiba : : charachins : : anabantoids : : goodeids : : gambusia : : corydoras : : lemurs : : indris : : Australia : : Dead Poets : : Smoke Signals : : John Trudell : : Gandhi : : Gerard Manley Hopkins : : the saints : : the Blessed Mother : : Jewish roots of our faith : : Ray Bradbury : : Madeleine L'Engle : : writing : : playgrounds : : the Cure : : the Violent Femmes : : the Smiths : : Smashing Pumpkins : : Brasilian music : : Native American music : : Santa Claus : : Day of the Dead : : A Christmas Carol : : Hard Times : : Percy : : Merton : : Chesterton, esp.
