At the end of life,
it's the laughter,
the tears,
the shared joys and
the shared heartaches
that we remember.

The wealth,
the work,
the trials
and problems
are as nothing.

It's the quality of our days
and the people we share them with
that make all the difference.

As I inch closer to the commencement of my fall travel craziness, I am choosing to fill my remaining QUALITY DAYS of summer by binging on friendships. Lunches and movies and cards and barbecues and walks and lazy "sit and chats" too. I hope you can find someone to share some QUALITY time with this week. It could be a co-worker or a longtime friend, or maybe that person that you run into repeatedly and you sort of know but not really.

Make a friendship date and then have an adventure!

Peace,
Paul
