On why I am not posting Facebook's version of my year



It's Christmas morning. The end of 2014. Thankfully. 
It's been a year that I will not let be repeated.

We lost Brian this year. I lost a whole lot of faith in family but gained a whole lot of faith in my network of friends. My posse. Without whom I never could have pushed forward through all of this. 

I found out that I have another great professional project in me and 2015 will be the year that I can make that happen.

My son Elliott continues to grow and to give back in a significant way. His choice to teach and his commitment to his students is remarkable. His commitment to his relationship with Vicki gives me so much pride.

Facebook's version of my year seems to trivialize the lessons that I have learned. So instead I offer this version.

Happy 2015 and beyond to all. 

To quote the great sage Jay-Z:
 "May the best of your todays be the worst of your tomorrows."
