    Reminder : people are good

    Sometimes, I get really tense when I realize that I have a week filled with meetings with people. I'm not talking about business/work related meetings, but just scheduled time to sit down with friends and colleagues to do something fun, or to talk about particular topics. I think it has to do with the intensity of my focus on other things I'm doing (business/work related, mostly) and the fact that I have more to do at any given time than I could ever, actually, do.

    Anyway, I have had several in-person conversations with friends this week and have been changed for the better each time. These friends are all also colleagues, so there is additional benefit. I feel more focused, I get interesting new thoughts about the medicine.

    It is no surprise to myself, and shouldn't be to anyone else, that we human beings function best when we are engaging in community activities. It's just a good reminder for me. Something to remember as we move into the relatively more cozy shut-in time of Autumn and Winter.

    This blog has turned into chiefly a personal development blog. It's mostly a journal for myself and myself only, but sometimes has bits of information of interest to others - thus I've made it public. I do share random weirdness I find on the web, reflect on features of our shared existence, and so on.

    Mostly, you'll find me active on my Chinese medicine site, Deepest Health which is undergoing a major overhaul as of November 2010. Honestly, most of my time goes into my multi-disciplinary medical clinic, Watershed Community Wellness. So check that out, too.
