I usually don't blog on Sundays, but I'll make an exception for Michael. No, not Michael Scofield, Michael Jackson, or Michael Jordan. It's better! The Michael Hyatt: husband to Gail, father of five, loving dog owner--oh yeah, and Chief Executive Officer of Thomas Nelson Publishers. He's witty, charming, disarming and as cute as a button! I've been following him on Twitter for several weeks and if Seth Godin is right about tribes, then Michael has an army! With almost 43,000 followers this man could go to war against Alexander the Great. And win. Yes, he's that smart.
On Saturday morning I tweeted about speaking at a conference on the topic of modesty. In true providential form, Mr. Hyatt tweeted about posting a blog about modesty no more than a second after I did. Michael could write about the necessity of Velcro in the 21st century and I'd love it, but this article was a perfect resource to read before I taught. So I tweeted again.
BiancaJuarez: Providence! @MichaelHyatt posted a blog about modesty the day I talk on the issue. I might have to steal his material ;) He won't mind.
And then it happened. My phone chirped with a Twitter direct message from Michael Hyatt. Wait, let me write that again. From. Michael. Hyatt.
MichaelHyatt: Absolutely! Steal away.
In that moment, Michael Jackson could have passed me his white glove, Jordan could've passed me a ball, and Scofield could've tattooed my name on his chest and I wouldn't have cared. Michael Hyatt sent me a direct message on Twitter. I squeeled like a little girl and nearly died. Twice.

Ahahahahahahhahahahaha! You're hilariously dorky.
Good for you. I'm glad "your dreams came true."
I love smiling and laughing from your blog. :)
Ok, so that's exactly how I felt when I got a DM from YOU! I'd say you've got a loyal tribe too!
aw... so cute :) And super cool!
hahah wow Bianca, a dead person could have passed you a glove and you wouldn't have cared? That's really saying something.
idk Bianca...your name tattooed on Scofield's chest? That would take the cake for me. :)
ha ha ha You're HILARIOUS! But cool, that he tweeted you!
how sweet!! :)
Hehehe that is awesome! I stuttered in my brain M-m-m-max Lucad-d-d-d-o's publisher... right!? And totally got stars in my eyes for you! :}
Isn't he the best?! I got to talk to him at Ted Dekker's Gathering and he was even more amazing in person. The first thing he said to me was, "You look just like your twitter picture!" and a few minutes later, "You have a blog, don't you?"
Uh, yeah. He's kind of a rock star. And he totally talks to us :)
