Good Morning Bill. Its been so long to which I am sorry. This was a simple and light re-starter. Many times we need that touch to get going once again. I truly and sincerely hope all is well with both you and Sara. I see all her entries are gone. I'm concerned but I always know the difficulties and ups and downs of life. Peace Love Blessings and Health to you both. (smiles) - PS - please drop me a quick soupmail just to let me know. Thank you Bill...

Even in working smarter, there's a lot of hard work Dear friend. I feel there's a whole lot of work, not necessarily physical but mentally. A lot of people do not know how to think but that's the beauty of creativity. The ability to think and create a new idea. So yeah Dear Billy, working smarter does it.

Dear Bill, I love your poem it's like a breath of fresh air to take a step back and reconsider our approach. Your decision to work smarter instead of just harder is not only wise but also inspiring. Your words are a gentle nudge for us to reassess our methods and find more efficient ways to reach our goals. Keep on writing those restarter poems—they're like little bursts of motivation in our day! - Blessings, My Friend, Daniel
