📫 Good at Hugging & Things You Love – Weekend Words #040
Powerful reminders for a smarter weekend
Sponsored by
For the first weekend of summer, your weekend words are: good at hugging and things you love. It’s out there. Stay hydrated!
“I was walking with my six-year-old son when it struck me that I had unwittingly fallen into the same trap: assuming that I as a father would know best what was right for him and for us. In that moment, I thought for the first time to ask my son what he thought a father should be. Without missing a beat, he told me that a father should be funny and good at hugging.”
— Augustine Sedgewick, Fatherhood: A History of Love and Power
“You can only become truly accomplished at something you love. Don't make money your goal. Instead pursue the things you love doing, and then do them so well that people can't take their eyes off you.”
— Maya Angelou, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings
