Remembering to pay it forward

Loved this movie. Loved yesterday’s premier of Lightyear. Tell a story with your life, if necessary, use words.

Remembering to pay it forward.

What?

Remembering to gift the future with remarkable hope.

The same remarkable hope others gifted me across my six decades.

Heretics, thankfully

First page of the introduction. Yellow highlighted sentence. Watch the two-minute video to hear more heretical talk…

Heretics, thankfully.

Heretic soundbites inspiring me to share them here…

If you think people are coming here to play golf, you are out of your friggen mind.

There are Links courses and then there’s everything else…

As different from each other as a Caddie is from a golf cart.

Forgettable, formulaic designs. Pretentious clubhouses. Signature holes. Golf carts on paved paths that make you feel like a token in a giant board game.

Regard your work as though it will still exist 500 years from now. Is that too much to ask? Anything else would have been too little.

Thank you for everything

Took the long way through different neighborhoods. All good though.

The key to success is learning how to define it for yourself.

Temptation.

FOMO – fear of missing out.

Crooks praying on your insecurities, and, your hopes.

The bottomless pit of just a little more. From what appears to be privileged work to the reality of an endless burden.

Thank you for all you’ve taught me and enabled me to do to help others.

“Thank you for everything” seems so trite to say.

Thank you for everything succinctly sums it up.

Final answer – thank you for everything.

Imagine every night

mid life celebration, the book, at Rocky mountain National Park entrance
To be so close (teaching at Colorado State University) and not make the attempt to briefly visit just didn’t feel right.

Imagine one has the daily habit of a generous gesture like preparing meals and weekly gestures like doing laundry and grocery shopping. Now imagine denying yourself the gift of gratitude by not thanking the doer.
