In the past, I have equated airports & airplanes…

We have enjoyed hearing from many of you and have even enjoyed racking our brains when we had nothing worthwhile to type. Great feedback is rolling in on the question posed in #6…please take the time to respond if you have not. It has truly been remarkable to hear of some altering moments in your lives. This post will be somewhat of a preview for the next blog…
