Note: Before I begin this piece, let it be known that due to job security matters for myself, and others, specific business details must be kept at a ‘dl’ level at the moment. With at said; the moment that anything official is announced, it will become public.
…now that the legal jargon is out of the way…
Truthfully, the beauty of having your own website is dictating what is and isn’t said along the page [for the most part]. While some pages are just about faith, and others are just about work, in my own strange little sandbox [minus that surprises from the cats] I get to blend it all together.
It went something like this…
I was heading home last night, rather frustrated, confused, and all around lost in my ways of life. I’ve been so busy with so many different things that I was unsure where I was supposed to go with my path of life. I could feel God burning in me [not to be mistaken for the ribs I ingested yesterday], but wasn’t sure where to go. So, I just pleaded [begged] that He show me anything; whether it be with work, soccer Guatemala, anything; I just needed some serious guidance because it was eating at me. I just didn’t understand.
This is all said due to the events that transpired later today. While at ‘work’, I was talking to a ‘official’ with the ‘company’ [catching on yet?]. While discussing ‘work’, the bit about WPSLKC came up. The ‘official’ was quick to pipe up that their ‘official supervisor’ was a huge soccer fan, and loved the concept of development [considering the line of work we're in, I'm not surprised]. So, to humor myself, I kept talking to this ‘official’ about these ideas with this potential soccer team [I truly was just enjoying myself at this point], and this ‘official’ brought up the idea of funding through the ‘company’ that they ‘work’ for, though this ‘official supervisor’. Humorously, I ask the ‘official’ what we’re talking sponsorship wise [money wise] and deadly straight faced they looked at me and said, “How much do you need?” Slightly caught off guard I mentioned “$50,000″, to which the ‘official’ replied, “You can already count me in for $500, I enjoy development and new business ideas, as for my ‘official supervisor’, pitch the idea to his other ‘official’ over here [his daughter] first and see where it goes.”
Now, through that coded mess, what are we to make of this? Simply put it means this, the company I work for, works with other companies; one of these other companies is in the proximity of where WPSLKC is hoping to play. The owner of this company loves to invest in community ideas, and more importantly, loves to invest in all things soccer.
$50,000?
It could be resolved that quickly.
More importantly though; if that is not the display from God I needed that said, “Keep going”, I don’t know what is.
Naturally, as things progress, there will be much, much more to come.
