Thank God as kids

We ran everywhere. Why? Walking took too long.

A decades-long career in a Fortune 500 company can easily push running everywhere off the table. There’s literally no time to go outside and play. So we don’t. For our entire career.

Thank God as kids, we divinely avoided this…

Knowing how awkward running is to most of us now, imagine if we started out thinking like that as kids.

Endangered species, likes

Long ago, at least a decade i’d say, i removed WordPress’s blog comment feature. Why? It’s a backdoor for ill-intentioned people.

Likes are a social media algorithm enhancer (generally). Likes provide a real, or false, incentive for people to “like” your posts. Even if they don’t. Not a good vibe for me.

Over-focused travel, body

Texts from airline
Walked a few miles in Atlanta airport getting to Gate D12 and then back again to C34 due to gate change. Note: Decent turbulence while trying to circle in red with my finger on the phone.

Intentionally wearing running shoes that allow double duty. Walking, obviously. And also keynote speaking.

Why is this an intentional decision?

Because while dress shoes (generally) would look ‘nicer’, they’re hard to walk/hike in for seven miles.

Note: i do not have room to pack a second pair of shoes.

Thank you vision

Body temperature thermometer
Second day with fever and body aches.

Thank you’s can have cross-over meaning.

When i thought of this Blog’s title, “Thank you vision”, i was thinking of a lifelong vision to stay physically vibrant.

Two seconds later “thank you vision” means regaining my left-eye eyesight.

That’s the beauty of any spiritual celebration marking a milestone. For Christians, tomorrow marks the milestone of a Messiah‘s arrival.

It seems to me that anything worth celebrating for one reason, can hatch an infinite number of additional reasons to celebrate.

Welcome to an ordinary day

Pure Nursing. Brilliant tag line. Anna (‘chief marketing officer’) knows Disney’s 5 pillars and 19 blueprints better than everyone at Galen, except the CEO. Anna crafted Pure Nursing.

Today is not a good day to put your dreams on hold.
