Imprints of a Golden Finger
Convention was incredible. If I'm allowed to say that, since I helped organise it. I think I can say it, because I don't think it was our preparation and organisation which allowed it to be so good and run so smoothly. It truly was touched by the finger of gold. Or perhaps more correctly, touched by the Hand of God. It was He who allowed and caused everything to run so smoothly. And who provided the perfect weather! And I am so grateful for it.Do you ever have times like that, where it seems that everything you do, no matter what you do, turns out for the best? It is an incredible blessing which I don't deserve. But, convention was a great time for it, because it blessed the lives of so many!
Some time ago, I spent several days pondering the word 'impression'. I was reminded of it these past few weeks. Who can tell me why?
One thing that I thought to myself, which is probably not entirely true, but is interesting to think about, is that, excepting for outside influences and pre-conceived ideas, it is difficult to get a wrong impression of someone. If one honestly considers the impression received, it would be the image projected by that person. People are, unfortunately, prone to project false images of themselves, for various reasons. But...ok, I'm not going to keep on going with that.
The point is, every meeting results in some form of impressioning. It can either be a good impression, or a bad impression (a depression?). But if we are honest with ourselves, it is a true impression. It can and Most likely will change. But, first impressions, as they say, last.
So, what does this mean?
It depends what result you want to create.
And so it was, that we pulled off 'The Great Con!' All the best for the coming year everyone!
