I was riding my four-wheeler in the woods with friends one weekend and stopped down by a creek for a break. One of my friends looked over at this funny looking plant-it was thin, round, and stood straight as an arrow. It was everywhere, and he claimed, “One of the weirdest plants I’ve ever seen.”
“That’s just equisetum,” I replied, “they call it horsetail; Native Americans used it to clean their teeth.”
My friend looked at me and said, “You’re not at Taylor Studios this weekend, so when I ask a question like that you just say, ‘Yeah that is a weird plant!’”
Last year my son, who was four at the time, played soccer. As I was watching him run down the field to go after the ball-he stops dead in his tracks. A butterfly flew right in front of him and he had to watch that butterfly as it flew by his head. As the rest of his team ran down the field to try to score, he looked over to me and yelled, “Hey Dad, LOOK there’s a Monarch butterfly.” I didn’t know if I should be proud or yell at him to get his head in the game. I then thought, wow, he’s 4-years-old and can identify a Monarch butterfly. Maybe he does listen to me when I point things out. He’ll probably be the kid that gets beat up a lot on account of his geeky dad.
My point here is not to illustrate my lack of a life or that I am consumed by work, but rather to show how my life and work are connected. Most people do everything they can to separate the two, but let’s face it, we spend the majority of our lives at work! I happen to be lucky enough to do something that I love, something that allows me to learn about this world we live in, something that allows me to share that learning with the people around me.
Even if that makes me a HUGE GEEK!
