"Promise yourself to make all your friends know there is something in them that is special and that you value."
The list can be much longer, but considering those I've spent the most time with during the last year, in no particular order:
- Jenny Mangina, for her genuine interest in others through her questions and recollection of small details in people's lives, as well as for her uncomplaining nature and her in-depth interest in sports.
- Rusty Hendren, for his soft-heartedness.
- Jennifer Stevens, for her sunny disposition and patient leadership.
- Sean Stevens, for his strength, sensitivity to others, and work ethic.
- Dena, for her loyalty and selflessness.
- Alan Wilson, for his tireless devotion to detail.
- Bridgette Richard, who's discovered her theater passion and follows it to the hilt, with unbeatable optimism.
- Jim Brown, for his ultra-preparedness, easy-going smile and openness about himself.
- Wendi Fleming, for her welcoming nature and support of me to try something I'd never done.
- Chris Terven, whose universal talents are surpassed only by his drive to use them.
- Ryan Short, for sharing his brilliance with humility, meticulousness and wit.
Who have you encouraged this week?
