To
Touch a Heart
My
heart surgeon, Dr. Sam Yousef, came to see me two days after my open-heart
surgery. He is a kind and gracious man
and a skillful surgeon. During our brief
conversation, he said, “Thanks for letting me touch your heart.”
And
he did.
And
you know what? That is what I live to
do. I want to touch a heart or two with
my words. I think sometimes I get to do
that, for some of you let me know through emails and comments on my blogs. For that I am grateful.
Of
course, you know I’m not going to operate on you like Dr. Sam did to me. I’m going to offer you words of hope and
encouragement, for I see, more and more, that today people need the breath of
air that good and nurturing words can bring.
Oprah
says the world begs for ‘validation’. I
happen to agree with her.
So,
I’m going to keep reaching out, writing, speaking and finding tools of my trade
that will speak to your heart and touch you in a way like few others do.
And
if you want to join this movement, and pass it along, that would be just fine
and dandy with me. I think our world can
use a few more ‘heart’ touches.
For
starters …
I
believe in the potential of every human being, and that includes you. Of what are you capable?
Ah,
that’s where you come in. Find out. If you get stumped along the way, and I find
out, I’ll offer you a word of hope to help spur you on in your pursuit.
