Food for thought

The European football competition. As I’m Dutch I love these matches. I love the exuberance of people dressed in orange and the energy buzzing around in the city. Preferably, I watch the match at a friends place or in a pub. Having a beer in my hands…..

Like today, last week we had a match on a Tuesday evening and yes, I went to friends to see the match together. While cycling there I realized that I, in my mind, was looking forward to a cold beer. I usually don’t drink on Tuesday eve’s and with a shock I realized how much programmed I am.

Probably we all are: I know my own kids are, going to the movies goes with popcorn….

Though confronting, this realization of recognizing my automatic pilot working overtime on many occasions also makes me feel rich.

I feel rich, not only because I’m able to buy my beer during tonight’s match, but because I’m aware of my free choice.

Enjoy the match tonight. Cheers!

MY PORSCHE Last summer I saw a Porsche in Whistler. It was parked in front of the hotel where my daughter was doing an internship and it immediately stole my heart. THIS was going to be my Porsche one day. It had a special colour blue, greyish blue, which felt just like the right colour…

A little gesture means the world

Last year I was facilitating a storytelling training with my co-host bestie. When he entered the room he gave me this card. It was a simple caring gesture of kindness and it immediately created the positive energy that we always feel when facilitating together.  Sometimes this is litterally just all that it takes. What can…

LET LOVE RULE!

I did an internship in Tunisia when I was 21. In the mornings, I drove to my work to an inland fashion factory. In the evenings, to pay for my rent, I had an extra job, working at the Ruspina hotel animation team, entertaining the hotel quests with sketches, dancing, singing. Back then and there,…
