Our Meraki Life

Hi Friends!!!  Welcome to our blog :)

So I know what you are thinking...why Meraki?  What in the world does that even mean?

μεράκι (meraki): the word entered the Greek language from Turkish, but its meaning has evolved in Greek into a very complex concept of good taste, hard work and positive attitude towards hard labour. We say that someone has meraki when that person is good at their job, when they do it dutifully and with great attention to detail no matter how hard it might be, without complaining, but rather enjoying and taking pride in it. It can also be used in the sense of yearning. 

 I suppose the closest word we have in the English language would be passion, but to me the meaning of Meraki evokes even more than that.  It is a combination of passion, diligence, excellence and fun; and that is what I want for my life.  How about you?

This reminds me of I Corinthians 10:31:  "So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God."  This means giving my all to everything that I do in life and doing all things to best of my ability with job...this, my friends is how I want to live!

So, welcome aboard as we do life...Meraki style!!!
