Shorts and a t-shirt

Jody Maberry and jeff noel
Ali and Jody were my biggest supporters before, during, and after the TED Talk.

Shorts and a t-shirt worn to the all-speaker AV check and venue tour at 9:45AM. It’s wonderful to travel light and not have to worry about dressing for success.

Earning a reputation that trumps what you wear feels like freedom and “arrival”.

Son, don’t fret how long it takes. Fret how good you feel with what’s needed to build your personal brand.

Two writers, speakers, podcasters, and hikers

Jody Maberry writing early yesterday morning as we awaited Room Service breakfast and prepared for a 9:45AM hotel departure.

Two writers, speakers, podcasters, and hikers we are. Jody and me.

Both of us a long way from home.

Both of us convinced the only thing different with this culture and ours is the geography.

The prevailing American image of the Middle East is not favorable. Once you spend a few days and mix in with the people, you realize it’s inaccurate.

Kuwait Towers birthday
We had adjacent tables and we presented the birthday girl with a Disney figurine. The woman on the right took her personal trainer (the birthday celebrant) to lunch.

It’s a massive and diverse amusement complex. A place “where families can have fun together”.

If love is love, and God is God…

It would reason to conclude that God is God.

One world, one God.

No?

Love, just because

Father to son note
Two days ago (date in lower left).

All we have is our love for each other.

Express it in inches.

Please don’t let what you can’t do stop you from what you can do. Remember our conversation on this morning’s (heading to Kuwait) walk?

Anything else we receive is a bonus.
