A DECADE+ OF STORYTELLING POWERED BY THE BEST WRITERS ON THE PLANET

Shining a Light

Being patronising is so easy. Just use fancy wording, glowing commendations, and rewarding individuals with a glittering number of adjectives designed to make an individual receiving such a glorious monologue glow with gratitude.

But in reality, such over-elaborate text is well beyond a normal ‘thank you’ or acknowledgment that projects genuine gratitude.

So how do you say a genuine ‘thank you to a person or persons who have ignited dormant creativity or inspiration?

A two-word acknowledgment would be insufficient. But listing the actual help and energy received would optimistically be received with sincerity.

VIEW OF REALITY

I have mentioned but a few valued BizCatalyst 36O° and indeed LinkedIn friends.

Liberation of creativity and love of descriptive writing and verse, I thank Carol Campos who opened a door of enlightenment.

  • Laura Staley, who provides and describes her life journey into reality and blesses us with glowing scenes of fortitude.
  • Susan Rooks, who sprays the world with humor and irony!
  • Charlotte Wittenkamp, who has accompanied me on metaphorical walks beside the River Itchen.
  • Christopher Fry, a much valued former colleague who has always been there during challenging and indeed times of celebration.
  • Rasiya Rahuman, who taught me a valued lesson in true reality and empathy.
  • Dennis Pitocco, who literally opened a Universe of togetherness with the BizCatalyst 36O community projecting true, genuine friendship. Dennis actually visited Britain and many US States engaging with a number of Featured Contributors, further building friendships, and creating an awesome level of synergy. He has always ‘been there’.

Our Friendship Bench, perhaps a unique platform of individuals addressing myriad topics rewarding all with a sense of positivity and belonging.

BEING THE DIFFERENCE

Good friends, I thank you all from my heart. You have made a difference to many of us. Indeed you my friends are the difference. And I thank all of those individuals not mentioned who have also made a difference.

Essays include accounts of his life in former days. Instinctively writing in such a spontaneous manner, descriptions become life-like. His often emotionally charged writing, whether describing a surreal 'Son et Lumière' at the Grand Place in Brussels to experiences acquired during European business travel. Journaling and Exhibition Steward activities are his key sources of inspiration and creativity. Kindness is ever more important, where he is a promoter of Shelly Elsliger PPCC's 'Decide to be Kind' Campaign.
