Rule #6, according to Dr. Wayne Dyer, is to "Stop taking yourself so #$! seriously!"Very good advice, especially in the midst of an economic downturn, an election that's turned pretty grim, and with the weather starting to turn nasty.
Halloween couldn't come at a better time!
I work at a small software company that really goes all out for Halloween. All 60 or so employees dressed up, many included skits and pranks and other shenanigans. It was a great opportunity to remind each other of Rule #6, and to remember that we really to like each other no matter how focused and crazy we've been lately.
This is me as the fun-loving Senator Sarah Palin extolling the virtues of gun ownership over barbecue at the company Halloween party. The button on my lapel says "Cuter than Joe Biden." :-)
(My costume is in no way intended to reflect my political views. In fact my friends would be surprised that I would be caught dead dressed as a Republican.)
Hope you all had a wonderful Halloween, and best wishes as we get into the crazy holiday season. And here's to Rule #6! We could all use a little more compliance.
