About this listen
In this Morning Brew reflection, Ted shares a lighthearted story about a stubborn molar and a tired old fence post—two things that recently demanded his attention. The tooth had quite a history, including a root canal more than twenty years ago, and after weeks of whispering, talking, and finally yelling, it was clear a trip to the dentist couldn’t be avoided. The verdict? Extraction.
At the same time, a wooden gate post on Ted’s property has been slowly giving up the ghost as well. A couple of steel T-posts have it temporarily standing, but everyone knows that fix won’t last forever.
Somewhere between dental chairs and leaning fence posts, Ted reflects on the dangers of living life on autopilot. Whether it’s our health, our habits, or the small warnings life gives us, wisdom often comes from listening to the whispers before they become shouts.
Sometimes the simplest lessons come from everyday things around us.
