the iae 2024 thank you list
As the story goes, before instagram, before twitter, and even before blogging, when I started in entertainment, I used to phone every friend and patron each party to invite them personally. Over time, I had boxes of phone numbers, then email addresses that formed the base of the Iconic Arts & Entertainment mailing list today.
One year, coming into my birthday, my neighbour, who was just older than me, came over and asked for my mother. I was like, "what for". He was dropping a design for her business card to her. If you don't know, I'm a graphic designer, and those times, I was, if not #1 in my market, a solid #2 to Crown Graphics. I was doing work for artists, for businesses, for djs, community organizations and corporate. So you could probably understand my confusion.
When I asked my Mom, she said "I know you're busy - I didn't want to bother you", at which point I felt terrible.
The result was an email that was intended for friends - that spoke to the fact that I recognized that in my pursuit of success that I was loosing track of friendship, family and mostly what I should be prioritizing (including the elusive "balance" that I still struggle with today.
However, I accidentally sent this very personal email to my entire mailing list. As most of my patrons then were friends, it began a weekly personal "blog" that acts as a beacon for my friends to know where I am in life. Although less frequent, that tradition continues in my emails today.
At the end of each year, I would undertake the RIDICULOUS task of attempting to thank every person who made my life better in the year. It often backfired, with people getting mad that they were left out - but, for me, it was an exercise in GRATITUDE.
It takes an immense amount of time, and most people listed probably don't even see it (PLEASE POINT THEM TO IT OR TELL THEM IF YOU SEE THEIR NAME), but for me, its a reminder, ESPECIALLY when you think no one cares, of the actual number of people that actually take time out of their schedule to write, call or stop me in the street with positive energy. As I get older, I have less and less tolerance for not telling people how I feel, then something happening to them. And vice versa.
So this THANK YOU LIST is my way of THANKING (to the best of my ability) everyone who has touched my life - some I spoke to, some sent positive encouragement or love, some simply inspired me from far, despite not having had actually contact in years.
THANK YOU.
