Friday Focus: Make adventures be all your fault
August 23, 2024

Nice sappy Hallmark greeting, right? But then, right after that, it read "And most of it was your fault." Can you believe that? I keep that card hanging up where I can see it regularly because, first of all, it is funny, and second, it reminds me of the importance of trying new things and occasionally getting yourself and your friends and family involved in something that, at the time, maybe doesn't seem like such a good idea after all.
