I actually get excited thinking about writing
my next article for the Senior Sampler.
It’s even somewhat soul searching as I stop to think about how I really
feel about what I am thinking. It gives me the opportunity and privilege to
expose my heart and mind. My intentions are to lift, share and convey my
sentiments, and hopefully stir those tender feelings in you that we all posses.
Maybe, to actually stimulate you to shed a tear of memorable reflection or
anticipation.
For example, who is your hero? What is your
favorite book, movie or pastime? Do you enjoy life? What makes it all
worthwhile? When are you most in harmony with both body and spirit? I would
like to reflect on some of these questions with you. Keep in mind, these
thoughts we have will one day determine the mark we leave on life.
For me, I want to leave the
mark of Five Stars on everything I do, from my professional business to the
brand I leave on the rump of my cows – my very best effort in everything. My
favorite book is Charlie’s Monument. My
favorite movie is Sea Biscuit. My hero is Mr. Warren Hanning. Mr. Hanning had faith in me, he gave me the
chance in life I truly needed. What a
champion!
I love life. I especially
enjoy my profession, serving my fellow-men and being genuinely concerned about
their well-being, whatever their need. It is most of the time respectfully
true, that the nut does not fall far from the tree, like father like son. That
would be the Five Star mark I would like to leave.
Sincerely,
Ted Spilsbury
