| | This year I’m particularly thankful to the dear friends that have helped me make it through the last two and a half years after things really bottomed out in the start of 2003. My friend’s Carrie, Dylan, Bob and Lisa, Theresa, and everyone at Cordair Fine Art were all instrumental in helping me pick up the pieces and start over. I’m also thankful to the woman of my dreams that I met two years ago. I won’t give her name, but I will say that she’s the most incredible, inspiring, brilliant, and beautiful woman I've ever known in my 35 years. And even though my life was too chaotic and painful for us to stay together, she was the one person that finally convinced me to seek professional help from a therapist. Having started down that road I will always be thankful to the people at the Center for Creative Growth in Berkeley, Ca. They helped me achieve a new level of insight about the many different paths I've chosen in my lifetime, a more optimistic view of my future, a better understanding about forgiveness, and a feeling of calm I've never known.
And I’m thankful that back in the summer of 2000 Doug McGuff’s book "Ultimate Exercise" lead me to read Mike Mentzer's "Heavy Duty II", which lead me to read Atlas Shrugged. Go figure…
