I got this quote off of one of my favorite blogs zenhabits.net. This is a topic that sort of hits home to me, as a Project Manager.

Today’s quote, ”Travel light, live light, spread the light, be the light,” I simply could not go without sharing. In fact, if you go through life with one quote only this should be it, and it [...]

Last night I was scrolling through my Tivo and came across a Primetime Special on a man named Randy Pausch.

In celebration of Earth Day this past weekend, I thought I would write about a subject that is of huge concern to everyone, especially our age group.
