Die with no regrets. Be at peace with who you are and content with what you have.

Spiritual vibrancy requires a pro-level growth mindset which insists you have the highest spiritual expectations for yourself. You are committed to only seeing possibility and opportunity.
Love, gratitude, surrender, forgiveness, kindness, generosity: for yourself first, and then for as much of humanity as you can touch.
From personal experience, make your first victory for yourself. Then your family is second. Humanity is third.
If you ensure victory over the devil (the dark side), your peace and contentment will ripple out without resistance.

Photo: A social media image yesterday. Most humans love the concept of love. Those same humans hate the concept of hate. And the terms hypocrite and blind-spot might be synonymous.
Do you love ‘love’ with the same passion and commitment you hate ‘hate’?

Earlier this year had the opportunity to spend 1.5 days with someone at “work”.
We were together 40% of the time.
He said “Jesus Christ” twice. He said it in the same context someone uses for traditional American profanity: exasperation, frustration, contempt, etc.
He also said it in the same reactionary way most people use profanity: unplanned, contemptuously, indiscriminately, non-empathetically (apathetically).
He’s Jewish and has deep family history traced back to the holocaust. Four generations. His family’s story made me teary-eyed.
i shared how much i hate ‘hate’ and told the thesis of the movie Green Mile’s supporting-lead character. Not Tom Hanks, but the jailed black man with a special gift.
My teary eyes, i explained, were from my earnest attempt to suck the negativity, the fear, the oppressor’s hate, the pain, from his soul.
In no way is there an implication, then or now, that i could replicate the Green Mile’s jailed character’s insanely unique gift to rid a cancerous person of their cancer.
But you know i’ve always said, don’t let what you can’t do stop you from what you can.
It was seeing the photo (above) that inspired this post.
While i am not looking forward to it happening again, the pattern is foundational (in my opinion) so i do expect it to happen again.
Praying for wisdom to confront it in the most loving, Green Mile fashion.
Wish me luck, divine wisdom and divine guidance.
Note: In 30+ years at Disney, never used a single curse word.
Bonus note: However, i know how to swear. Was once a High-Schooler in a locker room five days a week.

i will never ask anyone to think about something i haven’t already thought about.

My highest work bar is to be the world’s unequalled Disney Organizational Vibrancy teacher, from a lifetime of learning it as a Disney Cast Member, doing it as a Disney Cast Member, and teaching it to outsiders while a Disney Cast Member.
