Life sparkles outside of the box

Let’s boldly color out of the lines.

Together.

“Yes, Mrs. Etkins, you CAN compare apples and oranges!”

These are the words I couldn’t say when I was 12, the new kid in the class, and Mrs. Etkins shamed me in front of everyone. Turns out, there is such a thing as a stupid question.

Except there isn’t.

Except that “stupid questions” are where ideas are born. Where innovation begins, then thrives. Where life takes an unexpected turn towards something brand new. A lifestyle that’s against the rules, and creates its own odds. Mrs. Etkins would surely hate it. Yay! I’m ready!

Let’s let go of the shame. Let’s ask a stupid question. Let’s give “sensible” a brand-new context. Let’s create. Let’s dive right in. We’ll break the mold. We’ll take a risk. If we fall on our faces, let’s laugh from our hearts. We’ll plunge down a slide made of gold straight up into the sky. Why not?

Come in, friend. Let’s go.
