Diggy,

Thanks for sharing this. Yesterday I was on the phone with a girl from Harvard business school who had a summer internship offer from the company that I interned at while I was in business school. I was overcome by this old feeling of failure (because I didn’t get a job offer and went to a less known business school). This is a good reminder of the fact that most of that doesn’t really matter.

Diggy, I almost feel like posting a tweaked version of that second set:

1.List a few people that you schooled in life and helped teach life lessons.
2.Name three friends who you helped through a difficult time.
3.Name five people who you taught something worthwhile.
4.Think of a few people you have made who feel appreciated and special!
5.Think of five people who enjoy spending time with you.

Just to make a slightly less selfish set of questions. I wonder how many people could name any Miss America winner in the past decade with ease though? That program that used to be so valued has lost some lustre and even changed networks I think, or I may be thinking of Ms. USA as I know one of the two has had problems getting sponsors.

Charles Schultz has been gone for a decade already. Can you believe that? It still gives me a bit of pain and he died just before Valentine’s day too.

absolutely wonderful, i like different content, sometimes if fun that makes us smile and you certainly did

Thanks for sharing that Diggy – that’s the first time I’ve seen it but it certainly made me stop what I’m doing, breathe deeply and remember what is important in life.

Love your name Diggy and Snoopy never goes away!
Read it loved it
It so true
Except maybe for the people who would have been the answers to the first questions
I am glad to be me and to know and care about the people around me

Thank you Diggy (just love that name}
Karen

I was just telling someone the other day what a genius Charles Shultz was. I devoured those Peanuts books all those years ago and am afraid of getting my hands on them again as I’d never get anything else done!

And your post on who makes a difference in our lives and how is a touchstone one.

BTW, we haven’t ‘met’ but thanks to internet protocols, I feel I’m free to waltz in and make myself at home here
(Please let me know if I’m wrong)

Thanks Diggy, this was so heartwarming and insightful at the same time! Totally picked me up and put a smile on my face.

This post made my day. It has given me many ideas on which I can blog about. I have been a fan of dilbert but seems i need to venture to other places too.
