Tonight was a very enjoyable night. I spent some time with our CEO and CFO. I was invited to Dave's house to eat dinner. And it was just what I needed.
We had great conversation, great food and beverages, and learned a little bit more about each other and treated each other as people instead of work partners. I learned that these guys like to talk about their families, they like to talk about great experiences, they like to talk about travel, and the daily "stuff" that happens in life.
And in the conversation of the night, and the laughs, and the great food, I realized that I forgotten for a few hours about the things that I so often blog about. For awhile, I forgot about the current administration, I forgot about the people that irritate me, I forgot about work, and the daily stresses that can bog me down.
And it was good. When I have an experience like I had tonight, I am confident that we are relational beings and that we were made to interact and share with each other.
I need to make it a point of stopping once in a while and making a point of sharing life with others.
Thanks for a great night Dave and Jenny.
