Hope
I have a younger half sister (moms side).
She’s substantially younger.
15 years old to be exact. I call her c-line or sometimes c.
I get easily annoyed by the younger generations these days. I feel like they are borderline mindless consumers. Its why we decided as a company to work with X-Up & we did the Al Gore “Connect A Million Minds” event last november.
Well I got a picture message early this morning from c-line. See in a conversation I had with my mom just yesterday she mentioned the temperature there in San Antonio (Texas), and how it might snow. I said, ‘doubtful’.
This is the picture i received from c.
I love how the fundamental principal of ‘making do with what you have’ is reflected here. a light dusting of snow and a mini-snow man to stand as a testament.
Also great is the fact that there was a moment, (albeit short cuz he’s so small), that she was separated from a computer or even an i-phone (aside from snapping the pic), makes me realize that there is hope out there for our future. genuine moments of the simpler things in life are still shimmering in the quickly disappearing attention span of our youth.
It can’t believe it ended up snowing back home.
It never snows back home.
