Ryan, a Walt Disney World College Program Cast Member created a heart warming wow moment yesterday.

After dropping our son off with his friend at Epcot, there was some leisure, alone time to take a few photos.

This also led to purchasing a classic DVD, Tarzan.

After the sale, discovered there was no Cast discount, so in the moment, used Amazon to buy a much less expensive copy.

Then was directed by the Disney Merchandise Host to go to the other side of the shop to make an immediate return of the ‘expensive’ copy i had just purchased.

This is where a delightful exchange happened with Ryan. For starters he exuded Disney Gracious hospitality.

He answered the question stating, “After my internship I’m moving to New Orleans to be with my boyfriend”.

He said it so naturally and uninhibitedly. He was such a joyful and fearless person.

It was inspiring.

Worthy is the Lamb who was slain.

These five daily posts are always real life in real time.

Left the house this morning before writing a single blog post. Why? A 7:15am Quest Diagnostics appointment for annual blood work. Slept in until 6:15am to get eight hours sleep. Little time to do much except have a cup of hot water and get ready to leave for the appointment.

Writing now, while most people still haven’t started work yet.

When a confident, self-assured person takes it to a new level, things get worse for unhappy people. But for grateful happy people, it gets better for them. Yesterday’s standing ovation from the first post Disney speech was an incredible, unexpected gift on multiple levels.

Saying that to tell you this. While having an genuine conversation during the blood draw, the phlebotomist shared that her 32-year old daughter and 33-year old son-in-law left their three children at home and went out to celebrate Mother’s Day in 2006. Because of a drunk driver, they never returned home.

My response? A gasp, an unbearable weight, and a few tears. A solemn reminder that the value of a single day rarely reveals itself.

She is thankful for her three grandchildren, the oldest a United States Marine.

We come to know the true meaning of our birth when we learn to celebrate it everyday. All day.

Is our soul on a diet?

Update 7am: Since writing this 100 days ago, the video below is no longer available. Will figure it out as soon as possible (or maybe leave it as an example of change and imperfection).

Also, i have no recall of the specific video.

Update 7:49am: This is as close to what i think the video was. It’s here if you’re interested.

 

 

What we watch insidiously influences our soul. Fifty Shades of Grey, or, Old Fashioned?

Proper “nutrition” is good for our soul.
