Last week I was in Tulsa, OK with friends. They included me in a special event - a small, private evening with country music legend, Roy Clark.
Many of you may remember Roy as a star on Hee Haw, one of the biggest
television hits of all time. Roy, now in his 80s, shared stories and
wisdom gained from a lengthy and successful life and career. I wanted
to pass along one little nugget he gave us. After relating an
experience of his, he said to the 100 people there, “The lesson in this little story is, Don’t teeter.” He went on to say that if you teeter, you’ll miss the opportunity. “Don’t teeter, just do it!”
That’s
a simple truth, important now as much or more than ever. It’s
rubber-hits-the-road time. Time to “do it,” whatever it is. Either we are “doing it” a little bit every day or we’re keeping our car in neutral. That seemed important to say right now.
It
was a wonderful night, with many country legends in attendance, meeting
Roy was an honor and I came away enriched by all he and his friends
shared. Thank you, thank you, Tulsa friends, old and new. ... Minisa Crumbo Halsey ... is a wise elder and a medicine woman with ancient
