The simplest gestures

Ever hear a sermon on how the tongue... the smallest of organs... is compared to the rudder of a ship.  It came full circle today when someone reached out for something... and mentioned he was talking to a co-worker who met me the first time last week.  And he said... that his co-worker said, "Hank is great!"

I met that co-worker for no more than 45 minutes.  In that 45 minutes, we spoke for about 5.  And it wasn't a deep, soul-binding conversation about our hopes, dreams, and political ties.  

Sometimes... those 5 minutes can win you a fan for life.  Or it can destroy you till thy kingdom comes.  

For me... it was the former.
