Brewery…Skin Technology…what’s up with this Brother? This is the immediate dialogue flogging my wits, as the thoughts swirl…“what will people think”?
I come from a modest family lifestyle. When our means were meager, it was common practice in our household to give—out of our need—not our excess. Somehow, in the development of awareness and perception, at an early age I recognized economy—the difference between wants and needs. In time, economic patterns and trends slowly wandered into my philosophizing and theorizing. (Due to health issues as a child, I was alone much of the time.) I am referring to my life between the ages of 6 and 16. As a child and adolescent, I was occupied with the movement of my heart and spirit in relation to the world around me. I was extremely sensitive to war veterans, POW’s, the homeless and the starving—praying and wondering how ‘they’ survive the emotional, physical and spiritual trauma. Perhaps my sensitivities developed through my father’s love for war movies and seeing Sally Struthers’ TV commercials requesting donations.
Eventually, through personal and historical circumstances, I recognized the only commerce that was barely affected by economic crisis were alcohol, cosmetics and energy, i.e., oil, gas, electricity, etc.
Attempting to follow my heart, spirit and God, I pursued the brewery idea (and we know what happened there), but stumbled upon the “Wind Project” and the “Adenosine Skin Technology”. Through my eyes, these projects were gifts from God and a means to serve others.
This is my first blog and I liken the initial angst to giving birth to a baby (according to my mother’s stories). My baby girl has not entered the birth canal and I am already concerned about her first day of school, first date (I dust for finger prints!), college, and the fiancé who may not be good enough.
