I suppose hope is a state of mind. Something uniquely human and powerful. But hard to come by in situations like she was in. Perhaps our collective recognition of examples of hope are what have fueled her name in history.

See, that’s a problem with corporate America. They get all enthused with chair massages and Starbucks coffee in the office when really what’s needed are some hot showers…

Hot shower meetings were discouraged in corporate America.

Funny you should raise the topic Bill. I’ve been tinkering with a video idea on how to utilize the image frame to strengthen both the picture and use it to integrate the experience a bit more strongly. Especially as it relates to riding with a scooter or motorcycle as the subject.

More coincidences in the world…

Absolutely the case for me. Riding, and standing in a hot shower first thing in the morning. I do my best blue sky thinking then.

It’s strange isn’t it when things in people’s lives sync like that. Coincidence?

Hope things are going well with you. I’m on the retirement slide now. End of June and I’ll have a lot more freedom when I’m no longer trading my time for money…

I like how you frame the natural world around you, with reduced emphasis on your scooter. It’s always there to remind me how you got there, but it’s not the focus.
