Soul Food for Friday April 20th

Happy Soul Food Friday!

This week:

Imagination is a very special ingredient in our soul food repertoire, and this piece was submitted by two separate sources (thanks Larry & Robin) to bring you joy and delight.

Remember when you were a little kid and how the power of your imagination kept you occupied for hours?

This little guy, with the support of his dad, acted on his imagination and built a whole arcade out of cardboard in East LA.

Sadly because of its location nobody came 😦

Then one equally imaginative customer decided to use a similarly important soul-food ingredient (a conscious act of kindness) to make this dream come true!

Watch this all the way to the end…

It really is all about Perspective:

Stare at this picture carefully and you will see this man turn his face.
Is it is all about how you look?

(Thanks Larry)

Music Interlude:

Whether you are young and already animated, or aging and in need of some re-animation, music has a unique power to transform our lives.

First check out these young’uns kicking it on their musical instruments

Feed your imagination, cultivate your leadership skills, stay flexible, maintain perspective, let the music move you and go deep into soul-filled living!

Love,
