***k It

That’s what he would say whenever you discussed a problem with him.

The gentle giant was a master at helping you move on. He was also a master at breaking down every problem, going over it step by step and then helping you process it. He’d make a suggestion. If you didn’t agree with his suggestion. He’d say ***k it.

There was always laughter at the end.

This week I needed to hear him say ***k it.

His strong voice to provide the reassurance that it always brought.

His wisdom from his experience.

His way of breaking things down even though it dragged out.

I’d you have someone who smoothes your anxiety. Someone who reassures you. Someone who tells you to ***k it.

Pick up the phone and call them.

Life is too short.

Until the next,
