Meetings.\u00a0 Tonight I had a couple of meetings.\u00a0 Typically, a meeting is considered to be an assembly of people…..especially if they are members of a society or some kind of committee.\u00a0 And generally, the reason for that gathering is either for discussion or entertainment.<\/p>\n

I think some people like to go to meetings.\u00a0 And of course, others do not.\u00a0 I would fall somewhere into the “do nots.”\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It seems to me that meetings are geared more toward the extroverted type of person.\u00a0 You see…. for it to be an assembly …. there has to be other people there with you.\u00a0 Not only that…. you have to be a little outgoing and social…. at meetings.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It is simply the nature of the beast.<\/p>\n

Humans just seem to have this weird need to have meetings.\u00a0 Which made me think about animals… and how different they are when it comes to meetings.<\/p>\n

Birds never have formal meetings.\u00a0 They just post a bunch of tweets.
\nElephants?\u00a0 No meetings for them.\u00a0 Everybody knows they just work for peanuts.
\nOf course deer have them.\u00a0 For sure.\u00a0 There are always big bucks and a lot of doe involved.
\nNow horses also have meetings but they never get any motions passed.\u00a0 They are typically saying nay, nay, nay.
\nDucks meetings are never very productive either.\u00a0 They simply sit around quacking each other up.
\nZebras never have any kinds of discussions or debates.\u00a0 Everything is entirely black and white.
\nDog meetings are probably the best.\u00a0 No bones about it.<\/p>\n

Except maybe for dolphin meetings.\u00a0 They always have a porpoise.<\/p>\n

So there you have it.\u00a0 The full scope of the assemblies with a cause.
\nAnd that is all I have to say…. until we meet again.<\/p>\n

.
\nIf one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.\u00a0 —\u00a0 Henry David Thoreau<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
