Step out of the driving rain, maybe
Run from the darkness in the night
Singing ha, ah la la la de day
Ah la la la de day

2) My Strengths presentation / group interaction with the IMN cohort at Origins
3) Packing
4) Getting over the flu (lots of fluids, and nyquil at night)
I am really excited about meeting the folks that […]
I am content. This sentence is, if you know me at all, a rare statement for me. In life, work, school, marriage, friends - I have it so good. I am richly blessed. I am content.
This probably means some change is on the horizon. The kind of change […]
In my life, I have had the honor of leading various groups and projects. My view on how this can happen effectively has grown and changed over time. The thing that I always come back to is, I have to go with my gut and know that not everyone is always going to […]
