The crowd was excited in anticipation of a great closing speech. Even so,  Lowell Perry, Jr. was gracious in giving me a preview just before he went up to give his presentation on “Creating A Meaningful Life”.  He states that we have forgotten what it means to be human beings and have become  “human doings”. Great line! Coming soon, I will be posting some of his remarks from the speech. He has some thoughts about the potential overuse of cell phones, texting and other technology that you do not want to miss. I hope to post those comments in the coming days.
