happy birthday to my boss



A hummingbird once decided to make her nest on a brach just outside my office window. Days, weeks, months passed as I anxiously waited for baby hummingbirds to appear. But it was not to be, she moved on.

Her nest serves as a reminder to me that we're here on this earth for just a season. It may be a long season, it may be a short one, but it's the quality, not the quantity, that matters--it's the profound lasting impression one leaves upon others that counts. Today I celebrate John Finn, who turns 72. For his positive influence, I am truly grateful.
