Come What May, and Love It!


As my way to tip my hat off to an exemplary man, I thought it would be good to post some of his last words here.

Oliver Wendell Holmes penned, "If I had a formula for bypassing trouble, I would not pass it around.  Trouble creates a capacity to handle it.  I don't say embrace trouble; that's as bad as treating it as an enemy.  But I do say meet it as a friend, for you'll see a lot of it and you had better be on speaking terms with it."  Elder Wirthlin just took it one step further--thanks, Elder Wirthlin.
