Invitations

Almost all of us get invitations:
> to investment opportunities
> to attend conferences
> to retirement parties
> to baby showers
> to graduations
> to weddings
> to ???

Usually implied, but sometimes overtly expressed, is the request to come bearing gifts or money.

Another kind of invitation is an one that stays continually open to each of us:  You are cordially invited to LEARN!

Learn what?  Learn about yourself.  Learn to love.  Learn to serve.  Learn to speak.  Learn to engage.  Learn to weld/garden/sing/?/?/?.

No gifts requested or needed.  It cost almost nothing (except interest and attention).

The LEARNING can begin now.  It need not end.  

(Note:  When we choose to stop learning, one foot is already in the grave.)
