What is a "first turn?"
• Rounding a corner and being surprised at something unexpected.
• Walking away from a familiar sight, but feeling compelled to look over your shoulder before you leave.
• Flipping the opening page of a good book and knowing that you probably will be reading it all night long.
• The exhilaration of the initial spin on the dance floor with a new partner.
• When someone walks by and you almost get whiplash.
• When someone walks by and you almost get whiplash.
• Taking on a challenging venture never tried before.
• Rolling over that rock just just to see what is underneath.
• Doing something for someone else and not knowing where it will lead.
- Each of these is a "first turn."
