While sitting under an oak tree at an outdoor concert, an acorn dropped in to the cup I was holding and splashed mineral water all over my face. In looking back at that moment, I believe I was being given a clue that the course of my life was about to change. Within a year, I found myself leaving the comfort zone of a teaching career and embarking on a journey into the unknown. A new vision for my life unfolded as I began writing and speaking on the topic of creating positive change using the acorn as a symbol for the potential that lies within each of us and calls us all to a greatness beyond our imagining. |
