Duck, Duck, Goose

Greg and I watched an indie film last night called, "Duck." A tale of a man in his twilight years who had lost his son and then his wife. He walked out to a wooded area and laid down to die until he met a duck. Now you wouldn't think a duckling would be a hero but in it's confused "are you my momma" way he saved a life. And so the tale begins of the improbable relationship of a man and his duck.

What it brought to mind was how simple it is to save a life. It only takes one moment, one interruption of intent to possibly change the world. Each life taken, each emotional death can be altered by a single moment of time, of interaction.

And so I offer to you out in cyber space as you run around this day before Christmas to take a moment, make eye contact and speak a truth to someone. This one gesture may change that persons world and thus our own.
