Bears repeating

In the last year, my mother and my dog died. If you are reading this and are supposedly one of my friends, and you haven't said anything to me about it, you are nothing but a jerk. And that's putting it mildly.

The most personal listing copy

I'm 50 today. Yay me!

Making your mark on the world is hard. If it were easy, everybody would do it. But it's not. It takes patience, it takes commitment, and it comes with plenty of failure along the way. The real test is not whether you avoid this failure, because you won't. it's whether you let it harden or shame you into inaction, or whether you learn from it; whether you choose to persevere. - Barack Obama
