Just the other day I got in my car and saw something that caused a smile to well up from deep inside. The something I saw would appear to be a simple baseball cap to anyone else, but to me it was a gift from a good friend. This experience got me thinking, what invoked the smile I was wearing from ear-to-ear? While the hat is a great hat, it certainly wasn't the root cause of my emotion. The hat reminded me of the person who gave it to me, Evan McBroom.
I think everyone has people in their lives that make them smile just thinking of them. It might not be that you have a friendship spanning umpteen years, but rather the person you are thinking of has a joyfulness about them. I imagine we have all experienced the pleasure of an exceptional level of service at a restaurant or café, and I would be willing to bet that it was the care and overall attitude of the person serving you, rather than the quality of the product that made all the difference. These people make life better.
So, thank you Evan for the work you do through Fishhook, but more importantly thank you for being you!
