YOUR WHOLE LIFE IS GUIDED BY GODWINKS! “I was a boy with a dream. A sixth grade visit to a radio station began my quest to become a RADIO ANNOUNCER. From that day on, I went around the house talking into a sawed-off broom handle … forcing my voice low … PRETENDING I was a TV ANCHORMAN. That drove my older brother batty. I’d REALLY BUG HIM when I IMITATED my favorite morning disc jockey, DEAN HARRIS, on a far-away radio station. I’d come into the kitchen, and mimic Dean Harris, saying, “Get up and march around the breakfast table!” Whiz… a cereal box would go sailing past my head. Three years later I somehow landed a JOB INTERVIEW at the only radio station within miles of my little country town in northern NY. My only means of transportation was hitchhiking, which at that time, on a lonely country road, was pretty safe. Only a few hay balers went by. I started to WORRY that I might be late for my interview when a little green Volkswagen swerved to the side of the road, the door burst open, and a balding man beckoned me in. [OPTION - You can WATCH this story here: hulu/watch/141345#i2,p4,d2] I told the man where I was going and the PURPOSE of my mission, as well. When I came up for air, he said: ‘You tell that fellow you’re meeting, I said hello. He’s a friend of mine.’ He then thrust out a hand and said, “By the way, MY NAME IS DEAN HARRIS.” GULP. My hero? Dean-get-up-and-march-around-the breakfast-table-Harris?? Wow. What are the chances that a boy with a dream, hitchhiking on a country road, would get picked up and taken to his FIRST JOB INTERVIEW, by his hero? Oh yes … I got the job. And that started a four decade career in broadcasting. But, I also LEARNED that with God, there are NO ODDS. And, just to show YOU it’s HIM ... He’ll give you a Godwink that will DIRECT YOUR PATHS and make you SAY ‘Wow!!’ Do you have a story to share? Good Wishes for godwinks. SQuire
