Living Out Your “Dash”?

Our Time Measured Against Eternity

Everyone’s tombstone will have two dates separated by a dash. That little dash is your time on this planet measured against eternity. How do you plan to live out that dash?Anonymous

Lorelle on WordPress wrote an article about this anonymous quotation. Needless to say, these three sentences are quite profound and require a great deal of thought. Introspective thought. The kind of thought that is often easier to leave for another day.

Our Time Measured Against Eternity

“Our time measured against eternity”. Wow. Whenever we get all wound up in ourselves, our lives, our failures or our successes, it might be time to step back and think about that “little dash” and how it relates to “eternity”.

The significance of that “dash” is remarkable, isn’t it? We all need to keep our lives in perspective. Sometimes that is hard to do, as the day-to-day exigencies tend to get in the way of what is really important.

Thanks for the eye-opening article, Lorelle.

Texas Tracy

Custom WordPress Theme

logo.gifProject Complete: I just completed another WordPress blog theme for eBay power seller Texas Tracy.

In addition to selling a large volume of items on eBay, Texas Tracy wants to write about her experience and to teach others how to be successfull selling on eBay. She has a wealth of knowledge about online auctions, and if her first post is an indication she is going to have a very popular blog one day. Online auctions are very popular, and I expect her site to generate significant interest once it gets off the ground.

Good luck with your new venture Tracy!

Hubris Corpus

Custom WordPress Theme

hubris.jpgProject Complete: I was approached by a past client who had a friend that needed a custom blog theme developed. The friend is currently incarcerated in the Florida federal prison system and wishes to write about the criminal justice / prison system and his role in it, including one set of circumstances that took him to the United States Supreme Court.

I was able to use the basic framework of a blog developed for another client and customize it for use on the new Hubris Corpus website. The client wanted a theme that was rather ominous in appearance due to the serious nature of the anticipated content of this blog. As a result, I broke away from my normal approach and developed a theme that was light colored text on a dark background, which is not normally my preference. However, the associated graphics work nicely with the dark colors and I am very pleased with the final product. So is the client, which is all that really matters.
