More Balls.

It seems that balls will be re-occuring this year in my notes.  Today it is purely the metaphorical balls that represent courage or courageous stupidity some may say.  At my office workers are cutting down a few trees and as I see the worker dangling from a rope that I wouldn't hoist a sail with it occurred to me that it must take some 'balls' to do that on a daily basis.  Weilding a chainsaw and cutting through sections of the tree that easily weigh 5 times his own weight while dangling 20' in the air would certainly put me into sheer verdigo.

 

I wonder what he thinks of my job, does he look at the guy in the office and say that sure looks easy?  Or does he think that working for commission and dealing with rejection everyday must take a lot of 'balls'.  Does he see me knocking doors in his neighborhood and go 'glad I don't have to do that, it sure takes some 'cajones' to sell cemetery property door to door?'  These are the things that make me wonder.
