Summer Equinox and 'Horrible' Table Topics
Michael took his first stab at leading our meeting this morning and did a great job. He excelled at using his theme - Summer Equinox - throughout the meeting and even ended the meeting with a short fact about the Sun's effect on leaves. The word of the day was "Celestial." Michael debuts as Toastmaster of the Day. Melissa's joke about 2 trouble-making boys in church got a big laugh before we heard from our two speakers. Karen challenged us to identify those taking us in the wrong direction. Karen gave an inspirational speech titled "Directionally Challenged" which she will be giving again this weekend. Using two personal examples, she inspired us to stay close to the people who are helping us move in the right direction in life and keep our distance from those who aren't. She was later evaluated by Judy who's glows included organization, flow, and delivery and her one grow was to work on clarity at the beginning.
