All about grown ups who are young

Had a great experience tonight. A friend's daughter - just a year or two younger than my son - is working in a bright and shiny new non-profit. One of those fashionable, social entrepreneurial groups that are sprouting like wildflowers all over Miami. In places like the LAB and Pipeline and the Center for Social Change (shameless plug - sorry).

But the greatness of the experience was listening to a friend's daughter's passion about her work with AmeriCorps as a VISTA and making the work that she does for almost no money relevant for the underserved in our community.

Good on you Jennifer and all of the new generation of idealists with lots of piercings and multiple tattoos and great optimism for this world. So happy to share a glass of wine and some gnocchi and your enthusiasm.

Like this sunset you inspire me.
