WHO Are We
Pandora’s Delight is a family owned business committed to Leadership through inspiration of individuals. Perceptual ability to achieve non-conceptual extraordinary community values and strength. Inspiration to reach beyond the “expected” and pull Super Powers for inner sustainability that reaches community bonds.
Our experience has taught Humility; continually learned by embracing discomfort and failure. Character defects, failed learning, and life experience are strategic opportunities to prune positive and mainline growth.
WHERE Are We
Personal Accountability through Experience
Recently, my husband and I decided to provide our children knowledge and actionable steps to give back to the community. I had listened to a You Tube Video Marissa Peer: The Biggest Disease Affecting Humanity:” I’m not Enough”; https://binged.it/2nYwih8. We started with 10 paper sacks. My girls wrote “You Matter” in Crayola and we packed them with everything we could think of. When I read the You Matter, something felt wrong. I became self-conscious. What if I offend or hurt someone. What if they ask me. “How can you say I matter. Do you see me?” This is a complex thought process. So, I decided to get a 3 pack of beer. (This I hope does not stop you from reading, I taught even myself a very important lesson.) My thoughts were based on ostracism, diversity and inclusion.
Our first stop was “Robert”, he is struggling with his belongings and appeared to be planning for the evening. My 4-year-old daughter and I got out of our car You Matter sack in hand. As we approached, “Roberts” body language showed passive and self-defensive mannerism. It appeared he was more afraid of myself and my child. This is awkward! The first time I said, “Are you hungry?’, His response was,” I don’t want any problems.” This was not what I had expected! I am lost and confused. We do not want to hurt this man. In attempt to ease the situation, “Would you like a beer?”. “Robert” now sees there is no threat. However, Robert does not drink. Neither did 70% of the other recipients we gave our sacks of You Matter to.
Here is another great You Tube Link Amanda Palmer; The Art of Asking; https://www.ted.com/talks/amanda_palmer_the_art_of_asking
I am blessed beyond abundance. I do not forget my beginnings. I am blessed not to be remembered for my greatest weaknesses. My strengths are attributes to my family and community around me.
There was a darker time. My mind is a vivid recorder of the humiliation holding my now 14-year-old daughters’ hand. Begging another human being’s charity at a fuel station island. Desperation the only option. Food the only quest.
Becoming “Enough" First, took knowing! “I was enough”! And Becoming enough was the only option. But, becoming enough, was not any “text book journey”.
This leads me to a lot of questions. Is the homeless population suffering from addiction? Mental Health? Un-employment? Are they willing to work but unable to because of alienating criminal histories? Are the actual needs being addressed by the hundreds of thousands of government and non-profit institutes?
I believe it is Google and Google X where I heard life changing career advice. Fail Fast Addiction, Discomfort and Shame, well it holds merit to me. Have you ever worked with liquid glass? Coooool! Tom Chi Everything is Connected. https://binged.it/2BD7tRM,
