Yesterday, some friends invited me to just toss the football around in Boone Pickens Stadium; OSU's brand-new state-of-the-art stadium. I hesitated because i had just left my wife with both kids earlier that day and the rest of the day was going to be family time! Then i had the thought: 'i could bring Graham (my oldest) with me - he would LOVE that!'
So i did. And i will never forget his reaction. as we dropped into the massive, larger-than-life arena, his eyes widened and he exclamed, "Wow!..........This is huge!" And in that moment i knew i had done something great as a father. I had leveraged my access, my fun time with my friends, my opportunity...to expose him to a truly remarkable experience!
Make someone say "WOW!" today. How? Well, what do you do that you can show someone, where do/can you go that you can take someone? often times we take these things and places for granted. But your access, your opportunity, your destination, your way of doing things can absolutely make someone's day; even make a remarkably life-changing diference in who they are and how they think.
