A dig spoken or
A truth
Bluntly spouted?
Taken off guard
Feeling embarrassed
Feels awful.
Like watching two
Lovers having a spat.
When you’d just as
Soon throw some food to
Startle and make them
Chuckle.
A kerfuffle ruffles feathers
Sets a room alight.
Could someone kindly
Pass around some truffles?
For Love walked in the
Door with a mighty sweet
Tooth hankering for the balm
That only chocolate can calm.
In the big scheme of things and
At the end of the day
Don’t you want fluffy
Pillows on a bed to rest your
Head?
So don’t let the sunset on
Your kerfuffles for
Your hearts are bigger
Then a fisherman’s nets
And the catch of the day
Can be the embrace of tomorrow.
See fully the
Point and the gaffe.
Listen deeper…

Now can we laugh?
BE PART OF THE LEGACY
TAMPA BAY • FEBRUARY 23-24 2026
This FINAL encore experience will be unlike any other. Because like everything we do, it's been "reimagined" from beginning to end. It's not a virtual or hybrid event. It's not a conference. It's not a seminar, a workshop, a meeting, or a symposium. And it's not your typical run-of-the-mill everyday event crammed with stages, keynote speeches, team-building exercises, PowerPoint presentations, and all the other conventional humdrum. Because it's up close & personal by design. Where conversation trumps presentation. And where authentic connection runs deep.
