Last week I talked to several people at my church and I asked them to meet early on Sunday to discuss a few things. This was going to be an important strategy meeting. We had a lot to talk about. We really did.
Skip to Sunday morning. As I am getting ready to go I get a phone call. It was one of the people I was supposed to be meeting with asking me where I was. I looked at the clock and saw that it was only nine o'clock. "What was the problem?" I asked. The meeting that you called; we are here for the meeting you called. Panic, despair and anxiety all mixed inside my head like a smoothie. I was late for my own meeting.
This should have never happened. My wife had given me a new Samsung Blackjack that has a powerful calendar and appointment function with several high tech alarms, but I learned the hard way that they don't work unless they are programmed. I had forgotten to put the appointment in the phone. No matter what kind of smartphone I have, it is only as smart as I am.
