What Stirs You?

 


Margaritas, Daiquris, and Mojitos. 

Just a smattering of drinks that use a stir stick (affectionately known as a Swizzle stick). 

The stir stick is used to make the ingredients in a cocktail come to life.  It brings the flavors to the forefront. It leads to the climax of the taste. 

Straight up or on the rocks, the Swizzle makes it all work. It's not the cocktail you want without this finishing touch.  

Life is one big cocktail.  Bring it to life. 

Make it what you want and swizzle the hell out of it. Take the individual ingredients and make it life's double bubble.  

Belly up to the bar, don't wait for the last call, and make it the best effin Happy Hour you can. 

Cheers!

The Power of Vulnerability

 


 

Faster than a speeding bullet. More powerful than a locomotive. Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound. 

Yes, the favorite son of Krypton, it's Superman. 

Superman had several powers. One of the mightiest of heroes. Invulnerability was one of the more prominent tools in Supe's tool belt; being immune or highly resistant to damage, hurt, injury, or disease. 

Since it is highly doubtful that a tiny spacecraft carrying a mighty Kryptonian infant is going to make its way into our solar system anytime soon, finding someone with invulnerability is going to be a tall task. 

So, let's look at the power of vulnerability. 

To be vulnerable is inherently human but it's not a weakness. It's not an Achilles' heel. It's not kryptonite. 

It's a gift and it's so powerful. 

To be vulnerable to others is the ultimate trust fall.  When you care about someone...when you love someone so powerfully that you can be vulnerable to them, you can drink the elixir that can lead to healing and growth. 

Open up.  Let it out. Be human and show your power of vulnerability.  You will be ok. 

It's kinda super...to be Clark Kent.
