I am enthusiastically pondering what can be said of a journey well taken, one in which every step serves a purpose and creates a path to something so much greater. Offering, in every direction, great opportunities to seize the day like the sun rising to take its rightful place. We each have a specific resonance that is ours and ours alone. The growth that is gained along the way that yields itself to new experiences that unfold into yet another great story. The countless knowledgeable nuances that are steadily unfolding unmeasured wisdom and wealth.
Challenging oneself to go beyond what the eyes could see, to view life anew with greater responsibility and accountability to serve others in a whole way, expanding our minds and borders to gain new perspectives as we travel this written road never traveled before. Reaching beyond the thoughts of our own to hear the voices of those who live far and near. What an adventurous expedition this has been learning, celebrating and evolving with every interaction, conversation, crafted article, transparent interview, open community call, and in-person meet-ups.
As a creative and a branch of friendship and connection, these memories are the highlights that will last over time. As a new chapter begins, it is the directing within this bopping place that will hold a special bookmark as the pages flip over and the story continues to evolve and take shape to what the future holds. Creatively creating experiences and some fantastic story lines to share throughout the community is the breaking news over that morning coffee we long to read. Let us each take inventory of ourselves as we set the stage and stay the course on our own untold story. May relevance and impact be the very things that guide our steps along the way to advocating for more initiatives, creating an environment for growth to thrive as a blind and low-vision person in our communities, cities and around the world in the most diverse, equitable, inclusive and accessible way. Know that our stories are always expanding into our greater purpose.
As I have connected with so many throughout this chapter, I am elated to have shared space, time and conversation with each of you. Thank you for welcoming me into your journey as you have etched a spot in my story. As we race toward the fork in the road to embark on a new path, let us relish the progression of steps that has yielded positive impact, celebrate the collective values that keeps us seeking to achieve greatness together and regenerate our minds to see ourselves standing strong together on the other side of any challenge that presents itself as we turn yet another page.
The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step that tells of a great story that has begun because of love of service, leadership and community. Thank you all for allowing me to serve you.
