No matter how scary,
Gloomy uncertain the future
Seems. It becomes natural,
Safe and certain when it
Passes by

we are strong people - full and sure
our purposes are not in conflict - just out of phase
we share the need to achieve
and to find new solutions

we are intense people - busy and needed
our hours are overfull - our agendas undone
we share the delight of discovery
and endure our learnings

we are expectant people - determined and convinced,
respectful and cantankerous
we share an expectation of excellence - of success
though unprepared and unbelieving

we share the need for trust and commitment
we share the dream of excellence
our product development group was entering certification and production phases
stumbling in slow motion - not committed to its vision
but very much wanting to achieve excellence

The crisp Oregon air fills my lungs
Rain falling onto rooftops sounds like a beating drum
Echoing into the trees
I know that this is where I’m meant to be
New beginnings are in sight
As I’m starting a new chapter of my life
And I can’t help but wonder about all the potential that is there
As I sit and stare into the night

free gift of sobriety
that makes
life and laughter possible
Written in gratitude for a nice visit from my mother and brother with my daughter.
