Hoping the global trail of Jack the Bear photos and the 25,000+ blog posts is enough to some day be an Olympic Gold Medal dad.

God, i love to love and be loved.

Favorite story of all time.

Irene is a seating hostess at the Marriott San Antonio NW.

We met two days ago, a minute after i checked in because, on the way to the elevator to go to my room, i spotted someone i knew in the hotel atrium. i walked over to say hi and that’s how i encountered Irene.

She remembered my name yesterday morning.

The lobby restaurant opened at 6:30 AM.

i arrived a few minutes later.

“Good morning Jeff.”

It was a wow moment. We talked about it and then moved on with our individual morning routine.

As i was leaving, i struck up our conversation again and asked her, “What is the meaning of life?”

“Joy. Robust joy.”

i’ve asked well over 1,000 people the same question.

Have never heard that one.

Original.

Inspiring.

This frees us to love unconditionally.
