Increasing Knowledge

We recently brought in the Chinese New Year at the same time as our banquet and had such a great time.  While we were cleaning up, Ms. Ward and I were talking about the other Chinese traditions that are part of the New Year.  These were things we never realized and it made me start to think how there are many times that we may have limited information or incomplete knowledge.  Think back to the last time someone asked you a question and you found yourself stumbling and giving an answer with your best “guess”, or if you started your answer with “I think…”.  This was probably a time you could have benefited from more understanding on that subject. 

I want to increase my knowledge and become more familiar with our charities this year.  I know the names of our charities, I know the details of each, I know why they are important but I do not really KNOW them.  I want to increase my knowledge but I also want to find things that make me passionate so I can speak to others about them and hopefully spark their passion.  I am starting this now, so as we get closer to the Pandamonium, I will have practiced my “vocabulary” and get others involved.

Last year as a team we had an amazing year!  This year, let’s make it even better.  I would like to challenge each team member to find at least one of the charities and REALLY get to know it.  Let’s start working together to increase our vocabulary so we can make this the best Pandamonium year yet!

See you at the Kwoon!  Don’t forget Pink Shirt Day is coming up Feb 28^th.
