Happy Days are Here Again

We did it! Yes all of us who prayed, donated, volunteered, talked to our friends and families, knocked on doors, blogged, youtubed, put up signs, made calls, meditated, hoped, believed, had faith, voted.....

I am so proud to be a part of this historical moment.

Even as Prop 8, the ban on gay marriage, appears likely to pass, I still believe that in time, we will defeat bigotry. Let's continue to fight for equality!

Dream Big

Like many of you, I refuse to count the chicks before they are hatched. The signs are encouraging; a refreshing wave and a hunger for change is sweeping this nation. I am hopeful. A little meditation will be my contribution to Marriage for All and electing a leader who believes in world peace and has the resolve to bring this nation together and restore our standing in the world. A leader who believes that we all can play a part to change the world. A tall order but I heart it because I myself am a dreamer.

My condolences

I am glad you took time to share some special moments with Toot. She didn't wait a day longer. She didn't need to. You have accomplished the improbable, however the outcome may be. And she knew it.

I love my Granny dearly. But there was a point in my life where my education, career, entertainment/fun and relationships took center stage and I didn't spend more quality time with her. Then it was too late. Granny is in a happy place and one day I hope to spend some special moments with her.

Busy week: Recruiting in LA, Energy Healing & Creating a blog

Busy week!

Presenting to an auditorium full of MBA students at UCLA is not my day job so it did zap some energy from me to fly to LA this week to speak to a group of bright young students at the Anderson School of Management. My colleague David was with me and we had a good recruiting session mingling with a very enthusiastic group. It must have been five years since I last visited LA. LA is pretty much the same except the hobos are now asking for a buck instead of a quarter, a good indicator of the the state of the economy.

I spent the weekend helping Lawrence, an energy healer and my newest friend, create a blog. He gave me a healing session and yes, I felt renewed and ready for the new week ahead. Yes it is the week that will make history!

Check out the blog:

Lawrence, if you make it big in the city, remember to tell everyone I discovered you :-)

Cheers!
