Just Be and Be Just
One of the reasons I chose the name Wanna Be Blogger was because I thought it sounded unique. But, after giving it some thought lately, actually while I was on plane waiting for take off. It's amazing what thoughts can race through your mind after the flight attendant says, repeatedly, to shut off all electronic devices and yes, that means totally off, not silenced and not in airplane mode. Which brings me to ask, why call it airplane mode? If you can't put it in airplane mode on an airplane, why call it airplane mode? (don't answer that). So between praying for a smooth take off, yes, praying, not just for myself, but for everyone on the plane and their families. It's probably one of my most generous moments when even those people who place their luggage in the overhead compartment horizontally actually have my good graces working for them. Okay, so in between thanking G-d for everything and everyone, and asking that we all get back to our families in one piece, I thought, doesn't everyone desire to be unique and isn't everyone a wanna be to varying degrees? You wanna be all that you can be or wanna be a better person. So being a wanna be is just not that unique. So I thought, instead I could: just wanna be, or better yet, just be, as in be here now, or be just. However, I am not changing this blog to Just Be. That sounds too platitudinous (yes, I did find that word in the Thesaurus, because I wanna be sagacious and witty, but really, I just be facetious).
