January 13, 2024 – The Pause ⏯️

The Pause

First meeting of 2024 on a day so chilly that we all retreated to ZOOM, as if we were on the primary campaign trails in Iowa.

Bill, our Toastmaster, opened the session and the year with intentionality. ” Create a clearing in the dense forest of your life” said Martha Postlethwaite. That clearing, that pause, creates a space where a filler word, or an “umm” would have been, a gap when you can exert your power to not react.

Three speakers presented their observations, goals and thoughts this morning: Traci presented ” 2024 Theme Reveal” and her theme for 2024 is ” Live Gamefied’, a desire to level up your life. Belle presented ” Insights in the Pause”, thoughts post holiday heartbreak, Elliot presented ” The abundance of the Chihuahua Desert” , a presentation on the abundance of life in the desert.

Adi led a lively round of table topics.

The word of the day was ” Assuage”.

Our next meeting is Saturday, January 20th.

December 9, 2023: Cookies

Toastmaster Elliot introduced the meeting with a round of home baked cookies and fun facts about cookies. Traci presented her speech titled ” Conditioned to flourish”, a reminder that life is short and should be enjoyed fully everyday. ” Dance in the playground of life, cultivate your playground ” she exorted. Belle presented ” Thinking about cookies”, memories of their grandmother’s love for her family. ” Love is newspaper clippings, super bad chicken, tight hugs, smiles” all dispensed generously in a lifetime.

Bill led the group in a round of cookie inspired table topics.

The word of the day was ” Rizz”.
Our next and final meeting of 2023 is Saturday, December 16th.

Happy holidays Sunrisers! May your holidays be rich, sweet, soft and crunchy!
