Quite a bio, huh.       .       .

P      R      O      F      I      L      E

it’s really important

especially when we’re talking about

Y  O  U  R        P  R  O  F  I  L  E

.      .       .that’s what Social Media

is all about, isn’t it

defining

recognizing

noticing

advertising

selling

who  you  are

if in fact,

we ever really know the answer to that

ever elusive question.         .        .

because it’s as momentary

and as transitory

as the very next minute

and can change even faster than the next second

or your next breath.        .       .

So Facebook

as it often does

came out with a

S E L F – D E F I N I N G

W H O   A R E  Y O U  R E A L L Y

kind of an app:

EN.NAMETESTS.COM

that quickly analyzes

your personal data and posts and comes up with

well.      .      .

Y          O          U

or- maybe -a -really -good,

hey- look- at -me

bet- you- didn’t -know

but- now- glad- you- do

kind- of-

M  E

.        .        .So I gave it a

lets-do-this-for-the-heck-of-it-kind-of-a-try

and Wallllll-laaaaaaaa.       .        .

there’s my profile.        .        .

Aside from it showing a likeness of me

that looks as if I was the finalist for the

UNCLE   FESTER  LOOK-A-LIKE CONTEST

from the Adams Family television series of the 60’s

it gave me a snapshot of what I’d be proud to be

and SHOW YOU

who I am

but.       .       .

W     O     W.        .       .

is this where we finally have arrived.       .      .

to    be    defined

not by people

not by work

not by success

not by achievements

not by advancements

not by evaluations

not by one-on-one conversations

not by relationships

but by an app

a program

a ‘hey-look-who-I-am’

peek into what I’d love others

TO THINK

I am

but.        .        .

Do I really need such an app to define me.      .     .

It’s kind of fun

It’s kind of amusing

It’s kind of scary

that a FaceBook app would tell me who I am

and to make it  M A T T E R.      .      .

Do we need such an app

to define

to label

to identify

who we are.     .      .

FOR   ME

It doesn’t matter if it’s a Congregation

an audience

a small group

a person

who you think I am

but.         .         . how

I’m    serving   you.       .     .

that’s the real

DEFINER, isn’t it?

not

H O W  AM  I  

but

H O W       AM       I       SERVING

Y       O       U

So let me have it.          .          .

No holding back;

even if you have to go

a      n      o      n      y      m      o      u      s

tell   me   what   you   think

how   you   feel   I’m   doing

or   not   doing

even if

‘I suck like a straw’

go  to

www.thecaringcatalyst.com

and share.      .       .

purely

so I can share,

be better,

congregation

audience

small group

and person by person

because in end

and at any beginning.       .       .

I   aspire   to   be

 your image of me

is what I hope to be

a truer

more authentic

Caring   Catalyst

H  E  L  P      M  E

to be seen as I am

with no special effects

or enhancements

Join me.    .    .

in updating my profile

and in the meantime–

and for not just taking a real

honest to you

honest to God

look at yourself

but   for  doing   a   little   updating

as well.       .       .
