100 Words - Jon Swanson

Yes, it’s been a long time.

Can I get you some coffee?

What happened next?

That must have been hard.

Yes, I struggle with that, too.

I know someone who’s been through a similar challenge. Would you like her name?

What if we both worked on that?

Sure, we can invite them. Send them a link.

Leave a trail. Care a lot. Start in the mirror.  Look across the table. Listen. Respond. Trust.

100 words can be a speech or can be conversation. The “social” in “social media” invites the conversation. Accept the invitation.
