And, humbly, it was powerful

Calgary, Alberta from the air in Winter
On a plane, in a line, with friends, doesn’t matter, just ask…

 

Ask someone to tell you something spiritual in a random conversation and see how they react.

Just tried it and got nothing.

Totally surprised.

So it was an opportunity to demonstrate what it would look like if the roles were reversed.

And, humbly, it was powerful.

What is the meaning of life?

Most people do not have a ready, concise, and convincing answer. But some do.

Do you?

What if we did?

Three small reasons prompted a small change – a metaphor for life

First paid haircut in 30 years. Prior to that Cheryl cut it.

 

Three things prompted a paid haircut, in chronological order:

  1. Assigned to provide two keynote speeches for a global hair cut franchise
  2. Wanted to see if a brief break from this chore would benefit Cheryl
  3. It was scary because it had been done consistently by the same person for 30 years

The avatar photo was a random coincidence because the photo was taken so that when the next person asked how would you like your hair cut, we could simply use the photo to say, “Like this”.

Been getting a haircut at the establishment ever since – five years and counting.

Three reasons not calling home is important and empowering

Three reasons why not calling home Thanksgiving Day is one of the most important and empowering things for your self-esteem:

1. You realize when the phone doesn’t ring, it’s because no one called.

2. You realize that everyone in the world with a job is busy, especially on Thanksgiving Day.

3. You have an epiphany you wouldn’t have had if you had called.

The holiday epiphany reveals that each person is absolutely as capable and responsible to call as you.

And as a bonus, you understand that whatever your Family circumstances are, everyone may actually be okay with them.

Bottomline: when the phone doesn’t ring on either end, no one needs to feel guilt. Liberating discovery.

God-incidence?

Of the 360 attendees (plus staff), was among the first couple dozen to arrive at lunch and the woman inside was ensuring everyone knew there were two buffet lines.

Studying her name tag, Seaira, and pronounced it correctly.

Hey, this facility is amazing and who would I talk to about renting space for an event?

Seaira replied back, “Me!”

God-incidence?
