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. . .
Profile me that, Batman
