I hope I spelled "lei" right. If I didn't, oh well. This is my first entry into blog-land. The next thing you know I may own an Iphone. Who doesn't need a $80/month toy?
Partly as a social experiment, and partly as a testimory and reminder, I'll be wearing a lei EVERY DAY everywhere I go for the next 365 days. I feel like every day should be celebrated. We have much to be thankful for. More than we could imagine if we sat down and counted all of our blessings. The lei I'm wearing is from Gwinnett's Relay for Life, so it's also a somber reminder that life is short and it can be taken away from us. Carpe diem! There may not be a tomorrow, folks. Each day is meant to be celebrated. We aren't promised anything. Everything we have is a gift.
The only exceptions to the festivities:
1) Work. My day job is financial analysis.
2) Funeral(s) of people that I like. Hopefully I won't have to attend ANY funerals this year...
3) Wedding(s) of people that I like.
The blog has no true, stated intent. If anything is insightful or deep, it's purely by chance and unintended. I'll post any interesting reactions to the lei. I'm reading a book on body language and social norms, so it'll be interesting to see what kind of reactions I get. One whole year. That's my commitment.
