Jimi Hendrix: Rock & Roll Wisdom
“Let me stand next to your fire.”-Jimi Hendrix
We lost Jimi thirty-nine years ago today. This is my little tribute to the great one.
I want to stand next to people who exude the fire of passion. Obviously, Jimi did, too.
It is a ton of fun to be around people who are on fire, because they tend to ooze creativity and joy. These folks are typically eager to share their joy, which creates a vibe that touches everyone in their vicinity.
When you spend time with people who are on fire, their positive emotion is contagious. The more time you spend with them, the more you ignite your own fire. And when you fan the flames of your own fire, you have an opportunity to spread that fire to others.
When you do that, I’ll be first in line to stand next to your fire.
