Hope, Optimism, and Excitement

The sky is blue this morning, and the sun is shining, never mind the -4 degree temp here in St. Paul.

I begin the New Year with hope, optimism, and excitement about this stage of my journey. And as always, I look forward to the companionship of friends and family along the way.

I believe it was Jean Paul Sartre who once said something to the effect: "Don't walk in front of me and be my leader; don't walk behind me and be my follower; walk beside me and be my friend."

Happy New Year, Everyone!
