Last Person to the Party

Sometimes I feel like I’m ahead of the curve, and sometimes (like just now) – when I find something awesome that I had no clue about until just this moment – I feel like I’m the last person to the party.

I love it when other people have stated purposes that resonate with mine (See above – about fueling the spark…).  Especially when they are other lawyers.

The Soulshaping Humanifesto

At the heart of our philosophy is the belief that every individual came into this life with a divine mission. That mission has two essential components:

(1) to expand the individual soul;

(2) to expand the souls of others.

Satisfying the mission is entirely dependent on our ability to recognize and honor our innate image for this lifetime. The innate image is that combination of experiences, lessons and callings that we came into being to manifest in this lifetime. It is the form we are here to embody. (There’s more.)

Hi, Ginger,

This is the first year I attended the expo.  I think the idea is wonderful.  I hope it is a yearly event.

I was present for 3 workshops, 2 for which I registered, and 2 for which I was the person staffing the room.  I have comments about all of these that I hope you find helpful.

The workshop on Copyrights was fabulous.  Teaching and communication are arts in and of themselves, and this session had it all.  What I loved most was that he taught from the ground up, not just providing a set of rules.  He [Kevin Houchin] taught from the heart and spirit of the law, and then made it interesting and fun.  Absolutely great.

Thanks for the opportunity.
