  • Dear Hannah: LEarning (Reflections (and Corrections)) (03m08sec)
    Apr 30 2026

    Dear Hannah,

    every now and then

    i look back

    i'm checking for my shadow

    and the direction of my reflection

    so i can see where i'm headed

    and get out of my own way

    feel me?

    these are my reflections (and corrections)

    Love,

    Daddy

  • Dear Hannah: LEarning (Watch Me (Work)) (03m00sec)
    Apr 30 2026

    Dear Hannah,

    "Watch Me" is a phrase with several important meanings.

    It can describe surveillance & suppression ("who's that peekin' through my window").

    It can describe determination ("I *will* make it").

    It can describe discipleship ("may I show you me transparently").

    It can describe accountability ("please don't let me fall").

    Make sure you "watch me" the right way.

    Love,

    Daddy

    Dear Hannah,

    Make your dreams come true through direct, strategic action.

    Move your character towards faith and love through humility and confidence.

    Move with coordination and balance.

    Move those you influence through thought leadership.

    Love,

    Daddy
