Respect – Disney Customer Service Keynote Speaker

Sometimes, spirit

jeff and cheryl noel at Magic Kingdom — Cheryl at her Disney Cast Member “Years of Service” Celebration, celebrating 35 years. She retired early after 36 years.

Sometimes?

Yes, sometimes.

Why?

Because sometimes you reach a rare milestone few, if any, ever experience. Like Cheryl’s 36 years of Disney service.

Note: Speaking of milestones, on the cusp of doubling the world-record number of blog posts by a single author. The “official” world record is 17,212 by Darren Murph. The unofficial world-record, my total, is nearly double that, as of today (June 24, 2026). In due order, doubling is unavoidable. Doesn’t even matter to me. Never a goal. Never. But ‘sometimes’ you find yourself in thin air.

A bug’s life was not a Disney Pixar movie

Catching a bug in a house — Yesterday morning 7:30am

A bug’s life was not a Disney Pixar movie.

Well, it is, but it wasn’t yesterday morning.

Wasp flying around light above kitchen sink. Meant to free it before leaving for school and our son was grateful for the compassion.

Making breakfast and forgot, until i was remind upon returning home.

Character is what we do when no one is looking, which is most of the time.

Learning While Traveling

They speak with an accent, but they don’t think with an accent…the music is different…

The main form of local transportation is different….

It even requires a license…

Not far from the tourism, the real world passes by…Island Time….

Sports are the same, as is the sense of community…

Worship revolves around the same thing….

Love….

It’s challenging to find time to nurture our spirit. Even more difficult when we are surrounded by unfamiliar food, places, music, and customs.

But the more things change, the more they stay the same.

We are reminded, if we try, that our differences are only in food, places, music and customs. The most important aspect of being human is the same the world over.
