TRANSCRIPT
Spring has finally arrived to NW Ohio and we can finally venture outside to enjoy the fresh air.
Everyday we come in contact with a variety of people. Family, friends, co-workers, servers, baristas and even strangers. Co-existing with many of them on a daily basis but not really noticing or acknowledging these indi-viduals on more than a superficial level. Instead, we are in a rush to com-plete our to-do lists, too focused on counting down the minutes till we can clock out and go home, too absorbed with our own problems or tasks, too busy to engage with those around us and too disinterested to show we care.
But this season presents us with the perfect opportunity to examine the interactions in all of our lives. After all, spring is the season of rebirth, growth and revival. So . . . who do you need to connect with by slowing down and listening? Where do you need to fertilize a relationship with your attention in order for it to grow? What do you need to give up so you can nurture a friendship back to health? When do you need to stop keep-ing score at work and be there for a co-worker? How do you need to priori-tize the minutia in your life so you can show others they matter?
My hope is that during an upcoming warm day, you are able to get away and ponder these questions. After all, it is the impact we leave on those around us that matters more than how many items we finish or collect. So, go the extra mile and lend an extra hand, ear or shoulder. You will not be sorry you did!
