I hope you had a nice year-end break and are getting ready for the new year. All I want for the new year is all of us to do one positive thing every day — a positive email, an encouraging text message, a tweet of optimism or just a smile. It is not that hard to do, and make our crazy world a lot easier to deal with. Wishing you all a grand and fantastic 2018. May you be enriched by happiness, joy, and learning.
