My hands are scarred by gashes that I can never explain.  I told my followers on Facebook that it's a boy thing.  Can we say that today?  A boy thing.  We've evolved into a generation where having an identity doesn't play by the rules of all out openness.  Instead of a boy thing I should call it an all people thing.  But can I say people?  Yes we live on earth but there could be groups that don't identify themselves as people.  I use hand lotion to keep from getting hangnails.  Is that a girl thing?  It's a people thing.  No it's a thing.  

After the collapse of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s, the timing appeared perfect to bring Sesame Street to millions of children living in the former Soviet Union. With the Muppets envisioned as ideal ambassadors of Western idealistic values, no one anticipated just how challenging and dangerous this would prove to be. In Muppets in Moscow, Natasha Lance Rogoff brings the story to life. Lance Rogoff, a young American television producer fluent in Russian, was chosen to lead a crew of hundreds of American and Russian artists, producers, educators, writers, and puppeteers to create the Russian adaptation. During the production, against the backdrop of bombings and the assassination of her Russian broadcast partners, Lance Rogoff and the team remained determined to bring laughter, learning, and a new way of seeing the world to children in Russia. In her book, she illuminates how cultural clashes colored nearly every aspect of the production, from the show's educational framework to scriptwriting to the new Russian Muppets themselves, often pitting Sesame Street's Western values against nearly four centuries of Russian thought. In spite of the challenges, the show would go on to become a major hit, airing for over a decade.

Instead of asking about your calling use the time to fill in the blank...  With you we are _______. 

Getting lost in a thought.  One that you don't write down.  It's so big!  So strong!  There's no way it will fade away!  Then it does.  Where are you more lost?  When you get lost in the thought or lost when you can't remember what it was about. I struggle with bringing a thought back.  To make up for lost time I place the thought in tomorrow's journal.  When I return to the page, the emotions of why that thought was planted are gone.  Is it a struggle with living in the past or a dear future reader situation? Getting lost one thought at a time.
