Life Is Not What It Appears To Be
In November I was asked to speak at the By Referral Only - Real Estate Convention - Mastery Class in Las Vegas. Wow, Marlene & I had never been there before… but we had seen the show Vegas on TV… with all the glamour and glitz. We were pretty excited to be going.
The Real Estate Convention was for 3 days and I was on 2 panels. Then Marlene & I had a day to ourselves to do whatever… whatever included Cirque du Soleil, dinner out and a walk down the “strip”. I would say that this was one of the most interesting Halloween nights I’ve had in a long time. But… the flip side to the coin was a lot different than we imagined. The streets, casinos, malls & hotels were filled with masses of “very average people” and some that looked like they had spent too many hours in the smokiest casinos or bars…
(Where were the high-rollers, the Ferrari’s, Lamborghini's and all the high fashion people strutting around?) Marlene & I walked a bit further and landed in an area where guys & gals were handing out cards with every sex service imaginable. Where are we? Oh yeah, I guess this is Sin City.
On the trip home, Marlene & I talked about how life was not what it appears to be and how TV, media & hype can distort things out of proportion. Yes, there were nice hotels, shows, restaurants & great weather...but more importantly we realized that we are blessed to be living here in Abbotsford. What an awesome place to call home, raise a family & enjoy life.
