Maybe to you it was just a "Quickie" - to me it was an inspiration!

Sometimes it is the little things you do.  Maybe not an intentional thing.  An impulsive thought.  Sharing a moment.  But you never know who is listening to you.  Or if what you say makes a difference to someone.  Large or small, it matters.

Yesterday, while in my car waiting for a client, I read a really cool post from Cyndi Daves about a motorcycle trip in the rain with her husband, Bill.  I was reading it on my phone, and it is too much trouble to comment using my phone.  Later, I couldn't remember who wrote it.

So, what about it?  What was my takaway from Cyndi's post?

It was that I need to find something fun to do with my husband.  Long story short - - he is going to teach me to golf.  Starting tomorrow.  We already scheduled it and watched the Player's tournament or something today to warm up.

Now I know what a slice is.  It has nothing to do with apple pie.  Who knew???

Today, I logged on to AR, went straight to the blogroll - there is Cyndi and Dave's Rainmaker picture.  Score!  There she was!  I went to read her post and comment on yesterday's post ...

Cyndi's post today was about people's reaction to her Bike Ride post - she had just thrown it together real quick for the 31 Days of May Challenge.   When she logged on today, it had been featured in 2 groups and reblogged.  An AH-HA moment for Cyndi.

And she didn't know that her post was featured at my house, too.  :)

Cyndi's AH-HA moment was:

Just write what’s in your heart and head and let the chips fall where they may.

Worked for me.

Cyndi - Your Quickie post was an inspiration for me.  Thanks!

Virginia - I've seen some other big blue posts floating around...and it is true, we have no idea how and when a post we write will inspire others.

Virginia,

Good for you. You were reminding about your relationship with you special friend. I think we all forget to slow down and connect with the person who really matters to us.

Good golfing tomorrow. Hopefully you won't resemble the picture! LOL

Virginia you're so right.  But I am honored to have been a small part of yours.  Do me proud by being a good learner :-))) !!

You are lucky your husband is going to let you take up golf.  It is always a scary thing for male golfers to have the wives take it up.   You are going to love it.  Just remember, keep your eye on the ball....

It is so cool that you have found something that you can do something with your husband. I love doing things with my wife and the more we have to bound over, the closer we are.
