I love that you embrace the power of blogs and social media tools like Twitter, Facebook but that you see them for what they are... tools for helping you spread your message, and not magic dust to grow instant readership overnight. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Fantastic series. - Pete Savage Justine this is an outstanding series.

The heat of the sun stirring the wind. That is, the core of what you are doing. The generation of energy. Generosity is authority! Of course, time spent doing one thing is time not spent doing something else. Today people don't have the time to waste on that which doesn't feed them, so why waste time. Burrow down, follow the currents, whatever. They want the catch, the nutrient, the plankton for goodness sake! Fish, sea greens, and plankton from the sea! In a psychic sense of course. Paperback Writer is a sensible gal. There are others with similar stories of what it's like out there in the sea. "Why should I stick my neck out without return? Won't people take advantage of me?" Well, people are wise to that kind of thinking. Abundance creates richness, people respond to that. Time is limited, focus on the stuff that's all you, share it and develop it. The way out is through, the self-interest is in being selfless! What moves the wave? The heat of the sun stirring the wind. That is, the core of what you are doing. The generation of energy.
