However,

“If we devote ourselves to sacredness in our vocations, the world will rise to meet us” – Joel Salatin

This is why I harp on the little stuff. This is why I care about the people who are “doin’ it wrong”. I believe so strongly in the sacredness of my our vocations, that I find it mentally and physically disruptive to see someone misconstrues, misinterpret, misinform, or completely misses out on the potential of their own vocation.

I have a lot to say about TEDxMidatlantic, its contents, its inception, and more.

In the mean time, my favorite presentation from the day, Joel Salatin:

Do you understand the essence of your eggs? Do you understand what it means to explore your own chicken-ness?
