Waimea

Tonight I sat listening to presentations about leadership, strengths, and character.  The thing I realized tonight is that life is about giving myself away to other people, some who will never even know I helped them.  As the great prophet Bono once said, “You gotta give it away,”  you too must give it away. 

As I sit within 15 minutes of the richest man on the face of the earth (I am in Redmond, WA near Bill Gates), I realize I am the luckiest man on the face of the earth.  The only way I will stay that lucky is to give it away.  To my wife, to my friends, to those I don’t know, to anyone I can help.  I can help them through how I was created uniquely for a purpose.  “I gotta give it away”  - JVD
