This Weekend's Relevations and Realizations:

• E-mail is not communication - it is just sending information.
  
• Putting kids in their room and going away so that you don't kill them is a very good and perfectly acceptable thing to do.
  
• When someone is talking to you, give them your full attention and look at them.
  
• Life is about making conscious decisions and not letting the wind blow you through (and around) your short time here.
  
• Life is the process of learning from your mistakes.
  
  
• Most of all, life is about being grateful.
