World IBD Day

Today is World IBD day.

IBD is Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

IBD is Crohns Disease and Ulcerative Colitis.

Every one of us is touched in some way by health issues.

No one is immune.

But some are more immune than others.

IBD basically is the body’s immune system over-reacting. The immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissue in the digestive tract.

As much as I write for all of you readers, every once in awhile, I just like to take editorial license and write selfish things, like this.

In the hope that some day, IBD will have a cure.

Wash Your Hands

Routine can be a good thing. Agreed?

Routine can also be a bad thing. Still with me?

So when traveling, the night before my speech, decent and reliable food increases the odds of not getting any stomach surprises. If you don’t travel a lot and eat in unfamiliar territory, just try to imagine – especially if you have a “sensitive stomach”.

So, my consultant friend and I are at Outback Steakhouse. After we order, I go to the bathroom to wash my hands. Routine is good, remember?

A three or four year old, heading to the exit door is being told by his Father, “Wash your hands.” And out of the mouth of this cherub, “But I didn’t hold it!”

His Business Card Said

Could you sum up your life in one word?

Most likely, this is a question that doesn’t cross your mind, certainly not for very long anyway.

What’s stopping you from at least being open to the question?

My Dad was always self-employed. He also had a full-time gig at the Paper Mill. After he died, my Step Mom gave me one of his business cards from when he was a young man. The phone number was five digits. His title: Drummer.

In answering my own question, “Teacher“.

In fact, I’ve got to go give a speech right now.

It’s the routine, the planned, the unplanned, the emergencies, the daily grind. As simple as “What are we having for dinner tonight” to “I have to get the oil changed soon”.

Finding the right processes and the right structure is a moving target, for our entire lives. And we need to be flexible and creative, or we will drown in our pile of responsibilities.
