Easter Means God's Love is Inclusive by Devin Wright

1/12/2020 Empathy - Kyle Reynolds by Devin Wright

The Random Quotes database at MondayMorningMemo.com currently contains 4,376 quotes.About a third of these are quotes you can easily find online. Nearly half are delightful passages I've transcribed from books, movies, or TV shows, and archived for future reference. Five percent are witty and wonderful statements made by friends during lunch or in casually written emails. And exactly 455 of those 4,376 quotes are words of my own.Quoting oneself might appear to be insufferably egotistical, but in truth, my only objective is to capture thoughts I might want to think upon in the future. Hence my latest addition to the database, made only moments ago, “Boxwine and Soupline are barstool buddies of Spraytan and Parlay. The girl is Parlay's sister, Parfait.” Innocent readers who stumble upon that quote in the future will doubtless scratch their heads and say, “What the hell?” never suspecting it's only a note I scribbled to myself about characters in a short story yet to be written. But today, because you are special, I will explain the backstory of those 5 characters.A dozen years ago I hired Devin Wright and trained him to be a media buyer, a professional negotiator. At least once a day I would pop into his office and ask him a wildly unexpected question. Devin would always laugh, and that would be that. But one day about 7 years ago I popped in, pointed at him and asked, “Devin, is that a spray tan?” Devin sputtered and coughed and denied that he would ever do such a thing, so of course being from Oklahoma, I was required to forever thereafter introduce him as Spraytan Wright. Wine snob Boxwine Harrison has the office next to Spraytan. I decided that Boxwine's little brother would be Soupline. “But whence,” you ask, “come Parlay and Parfait?” Be patient. I'm getting to that.A week ago, Spraytan put $200 on an online gambling site so that he could place bets on sporting events. He quickly turned his $200 into $600, then got bored and lost the whole $600 playing blackjack. His pirate friend Dave Neubert asked, “Did you check your bonus money?” “My what?” “When you put money into an account, they often give you a few bonus dollars just to keep you gambling.” Spraytan checked, and sure enough, he had 4 dollars and 41 cents in bonus money. So he chose 12 fights that would happen later that day, picked his 12 fighters, and parlayed his $4.41 across the entire dozen, which means he had to pick 12 winners in advance or his bet would be forfeited. If even one of his fighters lost, Spraytan would get nothing. Big deal, right? It's four dollars and 41 cents. And not even his money.So he went to get a haircut. When he got up from the barber chair, Spraytan checked on his bet. Ten of the 12 fights were over, and his fighters had won all 10 fights! He drove home quickly, to say the least. They tell me the gravel from his tires is still flying above that parking lot. Sliding sideways into his driveway, Spraytan ran into his house, turned on the TV and began shouting instructions to fighter number 11. But that guy lost. Then, when Spraytan checked his bet, it turns out that he had bet on the other guy, the winner! When his 12th fighter won the 12th fight, Spraytan looked at his cell phone screen to see that his four dollars and 41 cents was now three thousand, seven hundred and twelve dollars and two cents. When he told me what happened, I said, “Spraytan, I believe you've earned a new nickname. After today, I'm going to start calling you Parlay.” He smiled. “But of course Parlay isn't a word I'm really familiar with. The truth is I never heard that word until you told me your story just now, so I'm sure you'll understand if I occasionally call you Parfait.” The smile disappeared and Devin said, “I think we should just stick with Spraytan.” Walking across the parking lot, I began thinking about a series of adventures involving Boxwine and Spraytan and Parlay and Parfait and Boxwine's little brother,

Fear is the bullet that eliminates happiness. Fear is the bullet that kills the dream. Fear is the assassin of success. Why not become bulletproof in 2 easy steps? 1. Make peace with the possibility of failure. 2. Amputate your sense of shame. “Failure is not an option” is the platitude of people who have attended one-too-many motivational seminars. Failure is always a possibility, whether you admit it or not. Sometimes your very best just isn't good enough. Do you want to succeed? Learn from each failure. Identify what went wrong. Start all over. Failure is a temporary condition. You cannot have humility until you first have confidence. You cannot fail until you first have courage. Confidence and courage are not shameful. Humility is not shameful. Failure is not shameful. Fear is shameful. A perpetual doubter pops the balloons of high-flying dreams. Armed with the needles of sharply-focused questions, the doubter injects fear into every decision… “But what if…” I say to these doubters, “But what if you live your whole life without ever becoming alive?” Anaïs Nin wrote about these people and your relationship to them: “You are in charge of how you react to the people and events in your life. You can either give negativity power over your life or you can choose happiness instead. Take control and choose to focus on what is important in your life. Those who cannot live fully often become destroyers of life.” The perpetual doubter is a nitpicking needle-snout who can always find a problem and happily poke holes in the solutions proposed by others. Like a mosquito, he sucks the life out of those around him. Slap the bastard and move on. I do not suggest that you become reckless or mindless or silly. I advocate only that you refuse to let Fear cast the deciding vote. If anyone had the right to be afraid, it was deaf and blind Helen Keller. But it was she who told us, “Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Security does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than exposure.” Devin Wright, one of my co-workers, puts it this way: “It's like a can at the grocery store without a label. It could be beans. It could be pineapple.” Each of us lives the life we choose. It could be beans. It could be pineapple. The following 9-word summary is on loan to me from that celebrated author of Gulliver's Travels, the immortal Jonathan Swift: May you live all the days of your life. Roy H. Williams
