This weekโs Heart & Soul is a test.
Hang onโฆdonโt scroll by. Give me a minute.
Hereโs the test: If youโve read any of the previous Heart & Soul Posts over the last five weeks, whatโs different about this weekโs Heart & Soul Title?
Honestly, if I didnโt write these posts I wouldnโt know either.
Thatโs my point.
We have become a society of skimmers, scanners and scroll-on-byers. Itโs not our fault. More, itโs the by-product of the world of immediacy in which weโre immersed, primarily due to social and online media.
Iโm not complaining about such advances. Many of them are amazing---life changing. Itโs just that there are times I wonder if, in our hurry to be the quickest, most well-informed society, weโre missing out on the elements that make us human. Things that connect us in ways that encourage kindness and consideration---true communication.
Thatโs why Iโve decided to launch a podcast.
Yeah, I know. Me and a million others. But hold on---hear me out on how this podcast will be different.
Each week I will invite you into my virtual home. Like any home, it will contain a collection of rooms, each with their own dรฉcor---themes, if you will. The podcast topic will be centered on the dรฉcor/theme of the room in which weโre gathering that week.
Now, hereโs where it really gets good.
These podcasts will be broadcast LIVE online via zoom. They will be free and open to the public and will encourage interaction. And by interaction I mean your voice being heard.
The podcast will debut on Thursday, March 12th at 7:30pm. More information will come as the date draws near. I just wanted to start sharing the news and hopefully engage and encourage you to join me.
As for this weekโs test? If you think you know the answer, reach out to me via this websiteโs contact page. (www.christinaabt.com/contact). If you send me th the correct answer by next Thursday (Feb. 26) you will be entered to win a signed copy of one of my books, including my newest The Secret Sand Circle (winnerโs choice.)
Have fun!
