I recently intereviewed for a position in Princeton, New Jersey. After the interview, Jen and I had the opportunity to stroll around the great grounds of the campus. It was a beautiful day, full of sun and that slight chill at the onset of autumn. It was very inspiring. Furthermore, it made me think, as I was walking with my lady, how fortunate my life has been. It has taken me in every possible direction, in every conceivable locale. It has allowed me enter the good graces of some amazing people (you know who you are) and avoid the company of people not so amazing. I have seen much and done much and written much and loved much, but there is much more to be done. Every so often, it soothes the soul a bit to know that you are heading in the right direction and that days have not been wasted, especially days like this.
