I am far behind, but I needed to read this one, right now! Ironically, I was just telling my husband that I need to make an appointment at the Genius bar, as my mac is running a little sluggishly and I have many concerns that I can't figure out on my own. But, I'm with you, I really hate going there! It's so noisy and full of unique (geeky sort of!) individuals, many of whom work there! But, I also want to purchase an ipad, for my trip, and I want to talk with a real person about how to use it. (I ordered my mac online and then ended up going to the store twice!)<br /><br />But, thank you for showing how we need to see deeply into the eyes of those we meet, not stopping at the surface!Sandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15923693784234135636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7509978691038206460.post-35840147822367205472012-04-16T16:47:38.470-06:002012-04-16T16:47:38.470-06:00So very true Barb.
