"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."
  -- Confucius
And this is mine... you will witness my triumphs and failures if you choose to follow my blog. I can not guarantee that I will not make someone mad along the way, spark some interesting debates, or quite possibly fuel some anger, but this is MY journey and I invite you to come along. I am going to apologize up front to my family and friends for words and feelings that will be posted in black and white, as some of them might be hurtful. This is not to embarrass anyone or shame them, but is a way of my being able to reach down and dig deep into what makes me tick. Everyone of you has helped mold me into the person that I am today and with your continued support will help transform me into a better me.
