You don't want to look back down the road and say, I could've done that, but I said no. " So, we made it work.

The things that most deserve our gratitude we just take for granted. Without air we cannot live for more than a minute or two. Everyday we are breathing in and breathing out, but do we ever feel grateful to the air? If we do not drink water, we cannot survive. Even our body is composed to a large extent of water. But do we give any value to water? Every morning when we open our eyes, we see the sun blessingfully offering us light and life-energy, which we badly need. But are we grateful to the sun?
It's so much a part of me that it's almost hard to describe myself in the absence of it. I know that for me it means asking for guidance, and that in the toughest times there's a personal savior that I can rely on. And I'm very grateful to my parents for giving me that.

I, for one, am very grateful to Stewart Davenport for having written it.

I stay balanced by remembering to prioritize. What is most important should never be railroaded by the "tyranny of the urgent.

Like getting to do what I love for a living. And trust me, I am.
