140 or Less
Vincent Hunt, for all who may not know, is indeed responsible for speaking volumes in my life since I was in middle school. His spiritual wisdom and creative insight is beyond remarkable. Recently, he dropped something on me that has been loud in my ears for the past few weeks. It’s a little something he would call…
One Forty or Less
If you are a Twitterholic, then you know where I’m about to go with this. The idea is that “anything of relevance can be said in 140 characters or less”. Anything!
I’ve been wrecking my brain with this and I think the greatest discovery is that many of us shape our lives, our ideas, and our beliefs around great minds who spoke in 140’s. From Gandhi to Aristotle to Solomon to Jesus, these legends have helped us understand life and purpose at a deeper and simpler level.
Take the book of Proverbs… profound truths written by Solomon in 140 characters or less. Can you imagine the quality of life for a man or woman who meditates and lives by the truths of those who spoke in 140 or less?
So…
In response to my Vincent launching yet another buzz-worthy way to spark conversation and to simplify the clutter that we call life, I have decided to do a few 140’s myself. Maybe you can join in and add to the conversation. Anything from quotes to scriptures to old sayings – even your own – are acceptable… but the only requirement is that they must be 140 or less.
