Notations From The Grid (Weekly Edition): On Living The Curious Life...

Please enjoy the following  compilation of thoughts courtesy of @Jonathan Lockwood Huie....



Life must be lived and curiosity kept alive.
One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.
- Eleanor Roosevelt

A mind that is stretched by a new experience
can never go back to its old dimensions.

We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things,
because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Notations On Our World (Special Weekly Edition): On Being Safe While On the Road....


The proiblem of distracted driving has been profoundly challenging.     Please note these subtle yet critical reminders: 





Distracted driving is anything that takes your eyes or mind off the road, or your hands off the steering wheel – especially texting and cell phone use.

Cell phone usage is the most common distraction for drivers, but any other activities that pull a driver’s focus from the road could warrant a citation. Although eating, applying makeup, reading directions, or driving with a pet in the lap are not illegal, if a law enforcement officer determines the practice is distracting enough to be dangerous, a driver may be cited.

The California Office of Traffic Safety offers these reminders to stay safe on the road and prevent collisions:
  • Never text and drive
  • Turn off your phone before you get behind the wheel
  • Don’t text or call someone when you know they are likely to be driving
  • Make a pact with your family, spouse and caregivers to never use the phone with children in the car
  • Do not eat or drink while driving
  • Do not program your GPS, MP3 player or other devices while driving
  • If a phone call is necessary or you need reroute your map, pull over to a safe parking spot
  • Do not groom
  • Do not read
  • Do not watch videos
  • Try not to get too involved with passengers in your car
  • Finally, if something falls to the floor, pull over to a safe parking spot before trying to reach it

As A New Week Dawns.....

As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light in the darkness of mere being. - Carl Jung

Chaos is the score upon which reality is written.
- Henry Miller 

I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze
than it should be stifled by dry rot.
I would rather be a superb meteor,
every atom of me in magnificent glow,
than a sleepy and permanent planet.
The proper function of man is to live, not to exist.
I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them.
I shall use my time.
- Jack London
