Time, spirit

Summer 2025. Probably the final group visit. Why? Time.

As the ‘boys’ get older, the reality is present that their adult journey will make scheduling a summer week in Northwest Montana adjacent to the Canadian boarder as challenging as any ‘family gathering’ .

Yesterday, spirit

Our spirit is a key driver in creating our ’emotional environment”.

God is a word i use as a net to catch all ‘religions’, including no religion. Every human has the capacity to choose what ‘grounds them’ emotionally. Many call their choice, “God”.

Didn’t cover all eight in today’s photos but came close.

The bolded top statement. Everyone at Advent Health can recite this at will.

Advent Health is the only non-Disney organization i’ve experienced where every employee knows their common purpose.

Note: My experience comes from getting to know some 2,000 various organizations, to varying degrees of depth, since 1999 when i started teaching at Disney Institute.

Busy squared

Took this photo yesterday and texted it to Cheryl. Requested two more bags. Didn’t know i’d be using the word devil and 6-6-6.

The devil doesn’t make us bad. The devil makes us busy.

Facebook status update
Upper left, 2017 Facebook update. Used to love FB. Now, it makes me nervous. Plus, the commenting feature no longer serves my peace.

There are words to describe yesterday, but none seem sufficient.

If all we get today is what we were thankful for yesterday, will it be enough?

i consistently talk about Church “being every daily step”.

While deciding whether to keep or delete Facebook, i read many entries and smiled big on the one below.

“The daily pickup after school hug ritual has been happening since he was 3. Today it hit me, it’s been 13 years.”

Turns out it lasted 15 years. Never missed a day.

Gymnasts do their reps.

My reps were/are different, but they are done with the same intentionality and intensity.

Time on my spirit

2005 photo. Disney Institute Facilitation Team. Inside Disney’s Animal Kingdom before the daily opening. Also before Expedition Everest’s official grand opening.

The time to serve is now.

What?

Why?

How?

When your every step is ‘church’, you can serve all day. Every day.

In the giving you receive.

Give like you mean it.

Receive like you are starving, and insanely grateful.
