How beautiful that Rabbi Skirball found you out of your whale on the beach of your journey and fed you the right books and ideas, and care.

Wow. What a lot to unlock in this post. I ask people so many questions that they often give me looks of bewilderment. What’s happened to curiosity and dialogue? Facebook, Instagram, other social media platforms. I’m friends with my local dry cleaner, butcher, flower seller, restaurateur and others in the neighborhood. Connection still matters to me. Happy Thanksgiving, friend.

I had a professor in grad school who used to start every lecture with this question - where are you? The first few times, it left the entire class in silence.

Tim O’Brien. He taught “exercising leadership” at the Harvard Kennedy school. I think he learned the move from Ron Heifetz
