The. Greatest. Thing. Ever.

But it's so freakin' cool, I have to share it again!

My birthday is in three weeks. A milestone one...
the "half-century mark."
My wife, Diane is one of the most thoughtful
people I've ever met. And that includes (especially)
to her family.
So she was looking for an experience for us
that we'd never forget. Not necessarily a "gift."
I'm hard to buy for. There isn't much I want.
If I do, I usually just go out and get.
Last night we were watching the National League
playoffs. Some background info.: I've been a fan
of the New York Mets since 1969, when Tom
Seaver was on the World Series winning team.
(And I lived one subway stop away from Shea Stadium.)
Good times, bad times, I'm one of the long suffering
faithful, waiting for something good to happen.
And so far, this has been our year.
So my daughter Jill and I were whooping and hollering
while the Mets were whooping on the Cubs.
Neither of us thought much about Diane pounding away
on the laptop. It's what she often does.
Then she looked up and said...
"You're going to the World Series."
It took me a minute to put the words into order
that makes sense.
"I. Am. Going. To. The. World. Series."
She grabbed two tickets from the Internet.
At first I was quiet. Then I lit up.
Two tickets. And she's not much of a baseball
fan. So she told me to take whomever I want.
I looked at Jill, smiled and moved in for the high five.
I don't know if Diane could have possibly gotten
a better present than that.
And I didn't ask how much the tickets cost.
I don't want to know. And I don't need to know.
And I am grateful beyond measure that it's not
an issue at this point in our lives.
That was a whole process. If you want to learn
it, I can teach you the basics.
And Diane can show you the methods and mindset
of a fun and very profitable home business.
Any moment can be a miracle.
Yes, the World Series is great.
But all the work, all the learning, all the risk taking,
all the self-development that came before...
That's what made this moment possible.
Go out and have a miracle or two of your own!
Let's Go Mets!
Talk Soon,
Larry
P.S.: Diane put a blog post about up about this,
from her perspective. Read it here. It's really fun!
