…begins with beautiful questions.
Ask away.
Answers will vary.

Pause by the orchid. Listen to the bluebird sing. Be love.

There’s never been another you. To own that reality is a choice.
It’s also choice to become a replica of what has already been.
Nevertheless, in all of our individual originality, we do all rhyme with Love.
One love…in billions and billions of never-before forms.
This is our story.
This is our song.
Unlearning…
…is actually what we need to be doing. There’s no other way to come to know what we don’t know.
It is the missing ingredient to move us from disorder to reorder.
And after we unlearn our habitual reflexes and responses, there’s always a period of unknowing.
That’s ok. And, actually, it (hopeful unknowing) just may be the point.
We’ve always connected the dots looking backwards.
Episode 29: Give-A-Goat with Scott Panella
In 2013, Scott Panella and his family traveled to Uganda to add two boys to their numbers. While there, Scott and his wife Meg saw a great need and realized they could do something about it. Give A Goat was born out of the idea that a single goat can change an entire family. The first goat given, Brownie, was met with tears and laughter. In Uganda, goats are more than a four legged creature–they symbolize hope. Give A Goat believes in something deeper than simply handing a family or organization a piece of livestock; Give A Goat aims to serve the group by providing housing, fencing, food, medical care, and education.
Scott joins us in Episode 29 at Let The Music Play Podcast and shares his beautiful story of finding his true self, building a business that is bigger than just the work of his hands, and how he is making the world a better place.

What would I tell my younger self?
Today? This…
Point and call out beauty everywhere you see it. Do the same for the truth and good that finds you and that you find.
Celebrate the success of others.
Don’t dam your tears.
Meaning > Money.
Pause by orchids.
Always assume positive intent in digital communication.
When you can, make time to prepare your meals.
Busy and efficient are not the same.
Be.
Love is the engine of the universe.
Oh…and it’s going to be ok.
