Sherri Coale wrote a deeply-felt “you got this” letter to her son Colton in the days before his wedding. She was certain that if she tried to say all of the important things she wanted him to know, “nonsensical drivel wrapped in tears, would land in his lap”. So, she sat down and wrote him this loving, sage advice-filled letter. This is a great GOTO to share with any young couple you may know…and maybe even your partner.

A bit of insight on word choice and climate conversations, culled from a piece by John Marshall at Potential Energy Coalition.

Mary Louise Kelly (host of NPR’s All Things Considered) has been doing some reflecting. What choices did she make and how do they look now, as her nest is nearly empty? Is it okay to travel through war zones when a kid is home with the flu? What is gained and what is lost, for the individuals in question and for society? This is a conversation to take in slowly, to share with every mother you know, and to discuss.

Shana Moore’s eulogy is a love letter to her very special mom Marcia Livesay McLean, AKA “Marshy”. Getting to grow up with a mom who is there for you “with bells on, no matter what” is a privilege that Shana fully acknowledges. Her heartfelt eulogy paints Marshy as the ultimate voice of the underdog, a “joy maker” who loved beautiful things and a caring mom who made every thing she touched more vibrant.

Talk about a Go To thought…here is a clip from an on stage conversation with Rainn Wilson about living and dying by comparison.

Rainn Wilson (who you might know as Dwight Schrute) is making a serious call for a spiritual revolution based on joy, acts of service and being honest about our mixed natures. This is a conversation to share with anyone who is thinking seriously about how to elevate matters of the soul over the clang and bang of the modern world. Or maybe just someone who needs a laugh.
