There is a V.I.P. in my life whom I’ve never met face-to-face.
Until 3 days ago.
Such a V.I.P. he is to me, that I never second guessed myself once about all the begging and pleading I’ve done to get him to come to Tulsa for a visit. Nary a nervous bone in my body at the idea of meeting in person, finally. In other words, it didn’t feel risky at all.
But it was.
Allowing someone that close…someone who knows me so well…someone who would know when to call “Bullshit!” because he’s had the inside scoop all this time…well…after the fact, I realize THAT WAS RISKY!!
But seeing me, my life, my kids, my home, my everything through someone else’s eyes…well…that was informative. And a little shocking. And reassuring.
And over way too soon!
Suzanne Bird-Harris would like to say she made the leap from Corporate America to web coach / WordPress developer on her own terms...but no, she lost her job after the CEO ran off with the 401K funds and went to jail. So, she started her own business with 3 kids, 2 dogs and a cat in tow on Dec. 6, 2002. It's been a wild ride, worth every risk, and she now proudly deems herself "pyschologically unemployable".

Suzanne-what a wonderful post. Nothing like a fresh point of view to make us realize and appreciate all the blessings in our lives!
Helen – You’re absolutely right. There were a couple realizations that I had, too, that may become future blog posts here.
Can’t wait to hear more, Suzanne – but so glad it was a good experience!
