Bask in your blessings

Disney Institute Speakers
Setting up my office before the audience arrives. It’s encumbant on me to have the best questions in the entire room.

Bask in your blessings.

God (or whomever you use) has provided us with a body – a temple housing everything keeping us alive.

i know you’re not defensive with Lane8’s post today because you know i’m not being boastful nor condescending.

You know i’m simply asking a question.

My life and career has been built on asking questions.

It’s my job.

(And i love getting to do it for a living.)

Christmas paradox revealed as i woke up this morning

Church epiphany
About a year ago i snapped this with an iPhone. Had an epiphany an hour ago.

Christmas paradox revealed as i woke up this morning.

Do i really believe in the spirit of gift giving as a part of a Christian belief system or am i a zombie on the treadmill of life, going through the motions?

Going through the motions is easy because retailers for many decades have crafted American habits and rituals – buy, buy, buy.

If we don’t offer gifts to people we love, that means we don’t care as much as everyone thinks we should care.

Right?

So as i awoke an hour ago, i couldn’t help but wonder, “How many times do you attend Church a year?”

Does your commitment to be physically present within a Christian community (just an hour a week) match and support your thinking for why you should give and recieve gifts?

What if it was every day?

Rock sculpture towers at Glacier
A spiritual-looking photo from Summer 2018. Rock sculptures where Snyder Creek empties into Lake McDonald, in Glacier National Park. 

Just like January 1st, what if every new day felt like a Sunday?

Asking this in the context of Sunday being a typical (of course this varies for everyone) day of worship.

What if every day we felt a special sense of worship?

And what if not only every day, but all day?

Would our lives change?

This is not a life-sentence by being highly structured

sanibel sunrise
In the midst of an amazing Sanibel Island sunrise yesterday…

 

sanibel rainbow
…i remembered to do a 180-degree turnaround. As i watched and photographed the rainbow, i saw a man with a big camera step onto the beach and walk toward me. He was so captivated by the firey-red glow of sunrise behind me, the rainbow evaded him.

 

Being focused and disciplined with our habits and rituals doesn’t sentence us to a life lacking in spontaneity and fun.

Quite the opposite.

We are able to take what unexpectedly crosses our path and use healthy improvisation to do something we’ve never (or rarely) done before.

This is exciting, fun, and often provides joy where and when we didn’t expect.

What many never experience and therefore can’t correlate is that wellness attracts, facilitates and enhances spontaneity.

Who knew?

Huge disappointment and deep gratefulness

Santiago Chile flight map
First look out the window…woke up at 430am Orlando time…3.5 hours of restless sleep. The great news, the fight wasn’t canceled.

The paradox of emotions flowing through my spirit was conflicting.

Huge disappointment and deep gratefulness.

Flabbergasted by Delta’s bumping criteria.

So grateful the flight wasn’t canceled.
