The tragedy of life is not death, it is being afraid to be yourself.

Your only hope in the deepest, darkest moments in your life is that others who are generally quiet and cowardly, we step forward with action and conviction for what is good and decent.
Ukraine’s reputation is becoming enhanced because of their leader’s will and their Country’s will to defend their freedom – with their life.
No one knew Ukrainian people as a general stereotype, had such conviction.
Their story is anchored in horrific inhumanity that most notably includes the Holocaust.
Adversity doesn’t develop character, it reveals it.
There are soundbites i will say until i die. The previous sentence and this sentence…
Never get bored with the basics.

Now that i’m clear, i feel a lightness that is literally indescribable.
Wow.
So cool.
Thriving to the next level.
Life is hard.
i get it.
i’m an alcolholic.
Probably addicted to sugar too.
And i used to smoke cigarettes, but only when i drank. And for 28 years, i only drank twice a week, on weekends and weekdays.
Dysfunction is nothing to be ashamed of.
It’s widespread.
But carrying some (self-imposed) unnecessary burden that it’s my job to fix it was unreasonable.
Ever hopeful.
Optimistic to a fault?
Then the creative year-long effort to reveal the obvious.
Change can only come from self-motivation.
Let’s just admit where we stand and then be willing to accept it and let go of things we can’t control.
PS. Facebook does not a solution make. Too public. Too impersonal. Like the dictatorial boss who thinks she can send memos to change her company’s culture…
PSS: Context – this post may seem hypocritical, like the boss writing the memo. Not everything is as it appears – private efforts remain private. i am at peace with the personal face-to-face and voice-to-voice efforts i have made in the past. Moving forward, these are always welcome. And i have retired from initiating them. Not initiating them in 2018 was the equivalent of the USA imposing economic sanctions on a country that takes USA’s generosity for granted, meaning a mental health professional agreed it would be a legitimate approach.

Thirty years at Disney makes it easy to share this with you, with conviction…
Today is not a good day to put your dreams on hold.
Practice what you preach or be quiet.
We are tired of hearing what you’re going to do.
Go do it, and share it after you’ve done it.
That will inspire us.
