Hanging Out with Les Brown

Posted Oct 25, 2009 06:51 PM


The night of the Braveheart Red Carpet Awards was a great night for the Braveheart Women Global Community. I am glad we could acknowledge so many for being INSPIRATION IN ACTION. The dinner before the event was very festive. Those Braveheart women in attendance looked beautiful in their finery. It was hard to tell a Braveheart Women from a celebrity--because we are a fine looking group of women, for sure! I was at the dinner because I was fortunate to win a VIP ticket from the online raffle. (Inside Story: I REALLY kept claiming to the Universe that I was going to win the car because I AM PROSPEROUS --however the Universe graced me with the VIP ticket instead (thank YOU Universe and Braveheart Women.com)

As we dined before the awards ceremony I was surprised when Les Brown entered the dining room. I didn't realize he had been invited to the event to present an award to Dr. Maya Angelou. FYI: Les Brown is one of the most sought after motivational speakers. I enjoy his Inner Core resource video very much and his installment of A Braveheart View is easily one of the BEST. He is an inspiration. He was seated at a reserved table for dinner so I was surprised when he appeared at our table to chat after dinner.

When he appeared, I was autographing copies of my CD and (to my surprise) he said to me... Can I have one too?

I blinked. My jaw dropped.

Then I breathed in the moment and said... Absolutely!

Imagine Me... sharing my inspiration with an Inspirational giant like Les Brown.

P.S. If my hair looks messy it is because I styled it with a PASTA FORK! (heh heh! we learned about beauty tips such as these at RISE)

P.S. Many thanks to Braveheart Sheli Gartman who sent me this picture. I forgot to pack a camera! Again... I am prosperous!

Aloha Claudia,

You look radiant in Pasta Fork Hair!

Knowing you but a short time, I am beginning to see that one of your special gifts is enjoying each moment full out... for all the grace that it holds....

What an example you are for those around you. It is no accident that you work with youth who are finding their way in a chaotic world,

:^O

Les Brown was a strong addition to a spectacular evening. His words: "Judge people by what they do that they do not have to do", (quoting Maya Angelou) resonate in my mind now. I keep asking myself if I am going the extra mile, and giving beyond what is required. He really brought that home to me.. I am thrilled that you had the opportunity to engage Les Brown and share his warmly enveloping energy - and to realize that this was indeed a very special moment for both of you!

You are here to share your inspiration with the greats, Claudia.

I encourage you to send him this picture, along with a copy of "Our of the Blue". Both CD's are stunning, and I feel he would enjoy receiving it, and listening to each selection.
