Yea, I'm sentimental and I'll admit it. Especially this time of year. No matter what holiday you celebrate and with the coming of a new year, I do reflect on where I've been, who I am today and where I'd like to be tomorrow.
When Peregrine was just a fledgling, I picked up a philosophy from Booker T. Washington:
Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome.
On January 1, Peregrine will begin its 27th year! I'm very proud of that accomplishment, but that milestone would never have been reached if it weren't for my family, great friends, clients that have become friends and of course Barbara. Sometimes we forget how we got to be successful. When it takes more than one hand to count my true friends...I know I've done right. So the best gift you can give anyone this year is to let them know they matter in your life -- because it's always better to want what you have than to have what you want. And friends and family are the best we can cherish... Hoping your holidays are wonderful, safe and with those you love. Robert |
