Very nice.

Interesting....I don't recall being able to see a sunset while living in Chicago! (life in the suburbs....)

Are you several floors up?

Ummm, yes. We're on the 28th floor! ;)

Is that South Tower at RP? Looks familiar ...

Yes sir.

By the way, I've seen your blog before...good stuff.

Thanks, Jeremy. Kind of sidewinded into it having worked in the tech space. Haven't checked out too many MBA blogs yet - if you know of any sources that point out why MBAs blog and if they continue blogging past the MBA degree, I'd be interested both from a personal pespective and because I have some clients in the corporate blogging space.

Steve,

http://mbaleague.blogspot.com/ is probably the starting point if you haven't discovered it yet. That's where most of my traffic originates and has a lot of links regarding MBA blogging.

I hope to continue bloggin past the MBA degree for similar reasons that I started - documenting stories of my experience (a blog reminds me to reflect and post something) and also keep friends and family updated (at their option and leisure).

One of the more important determinents will be whether or not public personal blogging is encouraged or discouraged by the corporation. Like many MBA applicants I might have to go private or simply not blog if it's a major issue. It would be nice to have a corporate policy regarding blogging (i.e. encouraged/discouraged, standards, disclosure, etc).

Just some thoughts...

(reading Eugene Peterson's new book, _Christ Plays in Ten Thousand Places_, and seeing your irises/sunset):

Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–89). Poems. 1918.

. . . Each mortal thing does one thing and the same:
Deals out that being indoors each one dwells;
Selves—goes itself; myself it speaks and spells,
Crying Whát I do is me: for that I came.

Í say móre: the just man justices;
Kéeps gráce: thát keeps all his goings graces;
Acts in God’s eye what in God’s eye he is—
Chríst—for Christ plays in ten thousand places, . . . .

(Note: "The Theissen Lectures at Canadian Mennonite College, Winnipeg, . . . were significant in the formation of the final draft" of Peterson's book.)

Thanks! I haven't read much of Peterson's stuff, but poems are always good for me since they aren't something I come across on a daily basis! ;)

Although I think I recently read another poem from Hopkins...
