So many of you have seen these emails before, for some it is new.
Long story short, today marks the 20th anniversary of the day I got home from Desert Storm. Every year since then, I’ve used this day as a moment of self-reflection, and as a time to recognize a few things. Overall, my life has gotten more complicated and more stressful, although I suppose that’s true of most, and I certainly can’t complain. What keeps me going every day, however, is the people in my life, who I encounter in person, over the phone, or through a passing email of facebook message, or just through a pleasant memory from time to time. Of all the things I’ve ever done, the one thing I wouldn’t trade is the group of people I met along the way. I am amused, inspired, uplifted, and motivated by at least one of you every day. And for that I thank you.
Here’s to another twenty…
