About a year ago, I made a resolution to be the best version of myself that I could be this year. As 2011 winds down, I realize that, while I am far short of that mythical, optimal me, that I am so much stronger, better, wiser, and productive today than I was in 2011.
I've been blessed with so may gifts this year: an absolutely fantastic lady and the great home we're building together; lots of outstanding great new products, both professionally and creatively; a renewal of my faith; and, most important of all, the resolve to do what is necessary to get even better.
The year has been challenging, but each hurdle has been a gift to show both how high I can jump, and who's there to catch me when I fall.
Thank you, 2011.
And, with all due respect to the Mayans, 2012 is not the end. It's the beginning.
Happy New Year, gentle readers.
