Return from DC

Just returned from Washington DC. I felt such a great connection to the city... I'm now trying to find a way to go back and stay for a few months. Any ideas?

Guy #3

My husband introduced me to Seth Godin's BLOG. If you have the chance, watch his blog entitled Guy #3. 

Starting something is hard. It's scary to feel so exposed.

"Initiators are rare indeed; it's scary to be the leader. Guy #3 is rare too, but it's a lot less scary and just as important. Guy #49 is irrelevant. No bravery points for being part of the mob. We need more Guy #3s."

I am often Guy #49.

Who can you be Guy #3 for? 

Can you be the tipping point that changes a random idea into a movement?

“For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.”

Abortion Doctor Shot to Death in Kansas Church

Regardless of anyone's convictions related to abortion, the use of violence is never the way to address our differences. There is no justification for the murder of Dr. George Tiller.
