Good Morning and Good Coffee!  Last night I was re-watching one of my favorite movies and today I started thinking why I like certain movies so much.  I think it is because in certain movies you get to actually learn about a person and not just a specific event.  We have the opportunity of sharing in a person's story as it unfolds but how often to we actually take advantage of the opportunity.  Today I challenge you to meet up with someone and take the time to learn their story for deeper relationships and deeper connections.  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/larry-quicksall/message
