I want to do something meaningful today.
I wished for passion, and I have been getting something meaningful, every day.
Friday was my 15 year old son Evan's Confirmation service at our Temple - he and 20 other teenagers stated their beliefs about God, Judaism and the "meaning of life".
Saturday I got to see Evan play in a string section with Dave Mason and Billy Idol (!) at a huge outdoor concert in front of 2000 people.
Sunday I got to play with my Jazz Quintet at the Jazz Bakery, raising money for music in the Santa Monica public schools.
Monday I got to join 400 fellow travelers at the San Francisco Main Event.
I want to do something meaningful again today!
This daily journal came from a promise. Right before Memorial Day 2009, I met with my business coach Joe Stumpf. I shared with him my total burn out in my business of 20 years. Frustrated by what my life had become, I promised to get up at 5:00 AM every day, meditate and journal and focus on bringing passion back into every aspect of my life, my work, my family and my personal growth. Instead of going to work every day and having a PITY PARTY, I have decided to have a PASSION PARTY.
