Daily Prompt – Who Would I Be For A Day – Tony Khan of All Elite Wrestling
Daily writing prompt
If you could be someone else for a day, who would you be, and why?
If I could be anyone for a day, I would be Tony Khan, who is the CEO and President of All Elite Wrestling among other things. Part of his duties is to run the wrestling promotion and to produce the matches that are featured on the weekly TV shows “Dynamite” and “Collision”.
Tony is by all accounts a hard worker who cares for those who work for him. I would enjoy being a professional wrestling matchmaker for a day and see what matches I could come up with. Feedback from the fans is something he is mindful of and that would be a tricky part of the job.
One cool thing about being in his position is that he gets to work with some of the greatest professional wrestlers on the planet. He is a fascinating man who I think I would get along with, we are both nerdy and enjoy things that are unique.
Greetings To Friday and The Weekend
Hey, It’s Friday and that has to make you smile. I am heading out of town for a Church trip today to hang out with fellow Episcopalians, which should be fun. Let’s have a great weekend, everyone. Love and peace to us all.
Ash Wednesday – The Season of Lent
Ashes are a sign of mortality and repentance. Remember that you are dust and to dust you will return. The season of Lent has begun. May those who observe have a time of reflection, renewal of spirit and self-denial. Peace to all in this time.
Have A Blessed Ramadan Mubarak To All Celebrating
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. It is observed by Muslims worldwide as a month of fasting, communal prayer, reflection, and community. May all who celebrate be blessed by the spiritual connections that are made during his holy time of year.
Shrove Tuesday Pancake Day
Today is Shrove Tuesday, many know it as pancake day. In some Christian traditions, this holiday revolves around feasts, parties and parades before the observance of Lent begins. In the early ages of the Church, people took pancakes to the Church and ate them while they were waiting to be shrived. At my church we gathered to eat pancakes, enjoy company and have some fun. Our youth sponsored our event as a fundraiser for a summer trip where they will go to help the Appalachian Service Project.
