❤️💣 Mission: Remember Them


Remember Them


The Background

On Friday my family and I were telling stories about my favorite uncle who recently passed away. On Saturday my buddy Damico and I did our annual autumn graveyard walk. Tomorrow is Día de Muertos (and if you want to go down a rabbit hole of translation history, look up if you should us the "los" in there or not).

October is the month where we seem to feel a little closer to those who have left us, so I wanted to come up with a way to remember some of our favorite people . . . with a twist.

The Mission

This week, take 10 minutes to remember a deceased loved one by exemplifying their best trait to someone in your world.

The spirit of this mission is that we're not just going to silently reflect on our person, but we're going to do a something proactive and positive to honor the legacy they left behind. For example, my uncle was one of the funniest guys I've ever known, so I'm going to find a way to incorporate humor into whatever I decide to do.

It makes me smile to know that so many people this week are going to be remembered for the very best of who they were, and a little bit of their personality is going to live on through our actions, to impact this world for good one more time.

(once you're inside, you'll see this mission under the Weekly Missions category)

See you in there!

Love Bomb

Every Tuesday I come up with an idea to make a difference for someone in a small, personal, creative way, then I send out that idea as a mission assignment to everyone in our group. Over the next week, we all spend 10 minutes to accomplish it in our own way for people in our own lives.

Morning, friends! I was doing the Love Bomb thing during the latter half of 2023, and then I took a break for the Christmas holiday but never came back. I ended up having to deal with a few issues at once (and still am, actually): loss of a job, some personal health stuff, some family things, etc. I'm still in a place where I need to take care of myself and focus on bigger things, so I'm going to do that. Love Bomb will be on indefinite hiatus for the time being. I appreciate you all being a...

Today (Monday night as I write this) is Christmas Day, and next week around this time is New Year's Day, so I'm taking the time off from love bombs. After that it'll be the end of the holiday season, and into the teeth of the long, cold winter. God willing we'll all see it through to the other side together :) It's been another weird year for me, full of stops and starts and big personal/career changes and more than a little stress. The kinds of things most people go through every five years...

From the Beginning The Background I just got back from taking a walk with my brother during a break in my work. It was a nice piece of downtime during this very busy month where I'm transitioning myself into a new (much more fun and creative) career as an AI developer. It made me realize that he's been there through all of my twists and turns, ups and downs, and personal growth over the years, and I'm thankful for him. The Mission This week, spend 10 minutes to acknowledge someone who was...
