Why was faith, hope, and love our go-to when we were younger?

Allentown's Morning Call newspaper
Yesterday morning, Monday, July 18.

 

i have no idea how to act when the only visible things that seems to be working decently are your lungs and your mind.

Would i be able to remain a pillar of faith, hope, and love when everything around me is crumbling?

At 57, i am incredibly inexperienced compared to 90.

i told him that.

All i can think about is that faith, hope, and love are the very things we need when the end is near.

Having spent many days and nights living in the Senior Housing Facility and visiting the adjoining 24-hour Nursing Home, i’m seriously confused by what i observe and have observed for many years.

And i wonder if Faith, Hope, and Love – our everything when we are younger – turn out to be fair-weather companions as we age.

A fourth simple question

Where would we be if we didn’t have the capacity to contribute?

Do what you love, mileage may vary

When i signed in on volunteer sign in sheet 24 hours ago, i had no idea of the carnage. It’s my smiley face with Mickey Mouse Ears hat.

 

Do what you love, mileage may vary.

Getting so close to a breakthrough i can taste it.

Ups and downs.

Highs and lows.

Certainty, then uncertainty.

Lucky breaks, then setbacks, and vice versa.

It’s that notion that few get to see with their own eyes. The notion of getting up one more time after you’ve fallen.

It’s hard to be beat someone who refuses to quit.

PS. The focus is my growing business, but in reality, this is also a metaphor for America picking itself back up after yesterday.

Hope is a great strategy but a poor tactic.

Leadership is hope’s super power.

Does leadership get better?

 

(note: this post was written 100 days ago on March 20, and edited this morning)

A new era of leadership begins for many people.

Working at Walt Disney World for 30 years, my number of gay and lesbian friends is countless. Today’s youth are so much luckier to be growing up in today’s more open and accepting world than my colleagues in the video.
