Paradox – Page 12 – Disney Customer Service Keynote Speaker

Teach, it changes everything

Teaching slogan — We are either part of the solution or part of the problem.

Song lyrics that degrade the relationship between two “different” races do nothing but perpetuate old, inaccurate, or presently untrue stereotypes.

When every song on an album contains explicit lyrics, and the songs promote how one race is responsible for the suppression of another race, are the words valid?

We talked last night about the paradox of whites holding blacks in slavery. And how many still hold onto this as a battle cry.

i asked my companion, “Why isn’t anyone celebrating that whites set the slaves free?”

While one group of “whites” condoned slavery, another group of “whites” fought and died to set them free.

What if the songs spoke of gratitude instead of hatred and disgust?

If the phone doesn’t ring, look in the mirror

Medical pediatric doctor office visit app — Yesterday in Allergist’s waiting room, a TV piece on a new app letting you visit with a board certified pediatrician via smartphone.

Ever pray when you wonder why you don’t hear from family and close friends for a long time.

Do you pray that they understand when they are feeling the same way, that they, and you, realize that someone has to go first.

In the absence of deciding who’s responsible for initiating calls, let’s assume neither has enough interest or time to be the leader.

But almost everyone has time to be the follower.

Inconvenience is a blessing

Inconvenience is a blessing. Will have to address the punctured tire today. This will require several unanticipated hours of distraction.

The blessing is it wasn’t something:

Worse
Much worse
Catastrophic

Other blessings include:

A flexible work schedule
A creative mind
A backup car to use

The list is endless.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

Desirable often comes with the less desirable, and vice versa

Lake McDonald view — Lake McDonald never disappoints no matter how many times you see it.

The west side is different; busier, commercial, but the the views…oh my. The delicate balancing act of life is ensuring that we take the desirable with the less desirable.

What is ridiculously easy can also be insanely difficult

Highland Trail hike — So beautiful on the first 400 meters of flat, wide trail.

A narrow trail is not a big deal on the ground, but move it up several hundred or a thousand feet and it can potential paralyze you with fear.
