A Thought for Today

Until someone offers you something better than your big dream, don't give up on it.

 

.ASK ROD

I’m turning today’s Flight Plan over to Jack Brenton our director of special projects. Here’s his letter with details on the April excursion to New York that he has arranged with Learning on Location. Later in the week Ken will be posting a direct link to their website.

Rod's random thoughts Praise is easier than criticism and always more instructive.

The promise is the promise. We seldom have to hunt it down; it finds us by its own direction.

You don’t have to be born again if you get it right the first time.

DECEMBER DAWN

Decembers’ dawn
comes soon enough to every life
and it will finally stop by ours.

I know with you beside me
I will embrace the winter
the same as I have welcomed
spring after spring after spring.

The last December?
Just another time together
for two to gather and bind up
a few more added days
in a life already full enough
and spilling over.
