Why I Got The Urge to Write
“My cup is more than full. It is spilling over.”
The past few months have been a whirlwind.
My twin brother got married (I gave the speech of a lifetime), got promoted at work, separated from my longtime girlfriend, and decided to live alone for the first time…ever.
These events alone easily inspire a need to write; a need to vent, be heard, cheer and gripe. But as I reflect, these events come up short in explaining this feeling taking over me.
My inspiration is more basic. More inherent.
Whether at home, at work, or at play, I interact with life how I want it to be; with integrity, excitement and positivity, and then garnished with a will to always be better.
I strive to instill these values into all my experiences and all people I come in contact with. This is a mission I take on wholeheartedly and with real purpose. But can I do more? Yes.
I have the urge to inspire greatness - greatness that permeates my family, friends, workplace, and the serendipitous interactions that give us the chance to lean more forward into life.
A strong point of view is the bedrock of change,
particularly when guided by a rich moral compass.
In this blog, I will give back and share: learnings, experiences, opinions and observations. Overall, events and happenings that have shaped my story, which is one of exceptional community and peers, (some) success and a portfolio of life experiences that have enriched me beyond my wildest dreams.
For this I am grateful. My cup is more than full. It is spilling over.
Nevertheless, I stay leaning forward.
Recently, a close friend defiantly stated that everyone must have a point of view. How simple a notion, yet often so elusive. I have taken this to heart.
A strong point of view is the bedrock of change, particularly when guided by a rich moral compass. Change leads to betterment, and sometimes even greatness.
This blog will be my point of view. 32 years in the making and in constant refinement.
