When I was a teenager my family went to the Grand Canyon, truly it was an amazing sight, I’ve never forgotten it. If you’ve been there you know exactly what that feels like, if you haven’t been there, it’s worth the trip, and you’ll never forget the beauty of the sunsets on the rocks, or the sunrise colors; it is beyond description. But that was when I was a

Majestic Colors of the Grand Canyon

teenager, back in those times it seemed to me to be one thing, today, when someone shows me a picture of the Grand Canyon my mind does many different things. For openers, it is now easy for me to see that what we consider to be a long time, is no time at all; when as a teenager someone asked me what I thought was going to be my life work, I really had no idea but said something like “well the law seems like a good thing to get into.” Any answer would do, because the truth, well, it sounded lame? Just as now when a year goes bye, it seems like it was only a month, and now my life work is, well; work- and the Grand Canyon; it took way beyond forever to get done, because, it’s still getting done…right there in front of our eyes. Ever had a business idea that didn’t seem like it was the right time? Ever have a business that seemed like it was going too slow?

“Is this…(fill in your name) – I’m calling because your daughter has been in an accident.” Words we fear hearing, we don’t dwell on it, that would be called paranoia, but we don’t like hearing those words, and we dread the thought.  Two weeks ago, some families heard those words, and they were being notified that the man of the family was in a disastrous accident in the Gulf of Mexico- in the worst of all possible end results, eleven of these brave men, lost their lives.
The question now is- is this merely blow-back from the sealant, or is there something else going on here?

When the United States of America begins to dig into it’s so called energy crisis- built around petroleum consumption; three questions come up:  1)  Can we curb our consumption or change the way we consume the petroleum.  2)  Are we so tied into the petroleum use that we cannot change.  3)  If we begin to drill for our own oil resources, designed to come into American tanks for storage, will that lessen our dependence in America on what is called foreign oil?

These three questions eventually hit the cost factor – and the companies which drill for oil, have to operate as any other company for a profit.  So the oil drilling companies are used to a certain standard of operation, and, the consuming and storing companies are also used to a certain standard, and the pricing of petroleum is consigned via certain economic mechanisms having very little to do with consumption, and much more to do with speculative value which homegrown American storage would impact upon.

At the end of the day, the question will come up, was this a disaster that occurred because of error, flaw in design, or- is this something else?  We aren’t talking about a ship which moves with currents and charts and can get off course, or be blown or maneuvered off course through many different factors, rather this is a set platform with set operating procedures.  Were those procedures altered- and if so, was that alteration part of standard or non-standard behavior?  At the end of the day, is this disaster meant to make America once more hunker down about drilling for her own oil?

The bottle was falling – as fast as I could,
with every bit of strength I could muster,
I had to stop it. Grabbed for it, needed to
grip it- sure didn’t want Ketchup all over
the floor! Been there? Milk’s pretty rough
too- have you heard the old cliche’ about
spilled milk? Well, why not cry over it?

The fear that is in that moment can’t last
because either, the bottle will be gripped
by your hand, or the floor? Hmm…before
you have time to contemplate it, you’re
into the next, NEXT- a very interesting
place to be. I remember the Colonel I call
him; he had a car had the license plate
on it said, NEXT; it was a half Cadillac
and half Rolls Royce; guy was so wealthy
he had a Rolls chopped in half and somehow
a Cadillac front end was put on that
pup, he said he liked the Caddilac
transmission, but the ride of Rolls was
one of kind? That was one bizzare looking
car- but- that license plate, wow- that
was what stuck in my head, because he
explained it as a theory to life- NEXT!

He said, some will, some won’t, so what?
NEXT. He said if some wanted to follow,
great, next, if some didn’t, great, next,
if somebody wanted to do something, great,
next…he was always onto; next.

Without realizing it, he had put me onto a
course of HOPE- you see, hope is…NEXT!
I believe in next- a lot of people around me
don’t believe in next- they see what they
see as where they are, and they base what they
believe they are going into upon that, so
strongly, that they aren’t ready for NEXT-
even though it just might happen to them?
What about the person who goes to work
every day believing they are going to
experience the same ol’ mess? They really
believe that- they really do- so they
don’t say, “I love you,” to people they
love, they really do, they just don’t say
it, because they don’t believe anything is
going to be different, they believe it is
all going to remain the same…but ever since
that night when the Colonel explained that
license plate to me, life has been a steady
series of, NEXT- so I always try to let folks
know I love them; as a way of getting ready
for NEXT! You see, we are never ready for
disaster- not really- just as we are never
really ready for, success, not really. We
would like to think we are, but the truth
is, we aren’t- because we never really
know, and we can’t really, what is- NEXT!

So now the question becomes, what will you do with what you know?

Michael Korda wrote about power, in his writings he talked about how powerful the term “NO” is. While reading that, so many years ago, to this day my memory feels the outright awe of how much that statement made me contemplate the power of “YES” which was Korda’s ultimate goal in teaching.

Perhaps you’ve not thought of yourself as a communicating dynamo? Maybe you have overlooked the obvious, and it’s obvious power? In your lifetime, if you get in on the electronic revolution; you will communicate to more people than anyone ever believed possible. In your lifetime, if you get in on it, you will become a T.V. type personality, from the relative location of your choosing…check this one out:

It is way more than angst- it is way more than we actually feel comfortable dealing with, for the simple truth is; we have a freedom here to express our ideas, and if those ideas prove to be useful, fun, fulfilling, or even, worth peoples while; then they will go out into the ether and grow contacts by the millions – to see a proof of this check out the “Obama girls” where they came from and what happened to them as a result of their idea! NOW…stick with me, invite yer friends, join us on MySpace and FaceBook and I guarantee, something you will rarely hear me do…but I guarantee you, you’ll get an enormous bang(!) for your buck!
