“Reee-mehhm-brrr that game show with dohhhrrr-z and cuhrrr-tenz?” Thalia peers through her memories keyhole. “Con-tehhst-ants could win a car — or a tropical trip?”
“Or — a goat.” Nia sees all options.
“Let’s Make a Deal… with Monty Hall.” Cal pictures herself in their childhood living room… eyes glued to a console TV. “Not only did they get to be on TV… They were challenged to listen to their inner voice… with an audience full of conflicting opinions.”
“A mehhhh-tah-for?”
“For life.”
Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.
~Steve Jobs
A note from LoveLetterist:
Over
the
last
24 hours,
I have been
gifted a life lesson
in trust.
I
have been challenged
to call upon
the muses
who
together
helped
me
to
unlock
the
right-for-us
door
forward.
Time travel, LoveLetterist! You have inspired all Three Muses to share in their unique ways.
Guess what? My seeing Monty Hall and the console tv has converted my hearing to monaural! Except in my worselier ear. 🤷🏽 This ear business keeps me on my toes…
Backing away a wee bit, I sense you and Steve Jobs share at least one view of human endeavor: You can’t be yourself until you know yourself. Steve seemed inclined to the “one-and-done” approach. You seem well suited for the “live-and-learn” school of thought. Either way there won’t be much doing without the knowing.
As we go marching onward…
