Good Morning,
Every week I aim to provide a thought, story, or news item of interest and entertainment. If i'm lucky, it also prompts musings on diversity. This morning I may have just out done myself…did you know it’s National Yo Yo and Skill Toys Week?
Of course every day around here is “yo yo” day (true dat and word to your mother). But, I declare that TODAY is Yo yo Day! A day to celebrate a simpler time when a knot in your yo-yo string was perhaps the most complex and significant worry...
This weekend I took in the contemporary art at the KC Art Museum...If a big brown blob of paint can be considered high art, then I feel comfortable sharing that I believe this footage encapsulates the thought:
This is the beauty of life. Life is never one thing...
In it you will see my friend and Master Chinese Yo Yo teacher Jen and her young "brave" tutee as he practices his art for the first time. You will also hear chanting. We were at an honest to goodness Native American Pow Wow.
may life bring you peace, happiness, and if necessary comfort in the whirling yo-yo of change...
Happy Monday.
word up!
