I picture may say a thousand words but what about a three minute moving picture?

How do you get away to be alone?

After doing some hustling and finally getting a couple people to commit the road trip is a go. We will be hitting the road for Nashville on September 19 or 2o. We’ll be there for a couple days before rolling up to Chicago for a couple days of hanging out with the beautiful people of that city.

Sadly, we won’t be making it out to the west coast, I couldn’t get a video crew for more than a week. So after Chicago we will start heading back to Austin…we’re not sure what route to take, so we;re open to suggestions.

Most of us keep pain and pleasure, ugliness and beauty separated, but is there more overlap than you may have pondered?

From the film Troy:

I think there is ingrained in all of us a empathic drive that creates a desire for us to show solidarity with each other. It seems that turtles have a similar drive.

We’re hitting the road in September to spread the love, shoot some film and connect with some people. We’d love to connect with you as we head across the country. In fact, we may need a place to crash.

We’re headed to:

Nashville
Chicago
Salt Lake City
San Francisco
San Diego
Las Vegas

And spots in between.

Part of the trip will be the official launch of The Intersection. We have spent the last year creating content and putting the feelers out to see what The Intersection should be and we want to start with a bang!

We’ll be live streaming, tweeting, blogging and hearing stories from people all along the way.

Stay tuned as we prepare for a blog tour and begin to announce the various live events that will happen along the way.

Ben has a remarkable story, here’s a quick snap shot:

What are the first thoughts that pop into your head when you watch this?

Giving up has its place. At some point you have to look at a situation and make the decision to walk.

But the feeling of sticking with something through failure upon failure because your inner voice is saying:

“I got this”
