PEBBLE:
If you are always trying to be normal,
you will never know how amazing you can be....
-Maya Angelou, shared by Bruce in Gotham City

BOULDER:
Never forget
that you are one of a kind.
Never forget
that if there weren't any need
for you in all your uniqueness
to be on this earth,
you wouldn't be here
in the first place.
-R. Buckminster Fuller, shared by Isaac in Sedona, AZ

PONDER:
As I make my way home after a whirlwind of campus visits (greetings to our new Ripplers from CMU, Salisbury, Lakeland, Marian, NWTC, and Rowan!), I'll remind you what I told this year's batch of new students embarking on their college adventures: so much of success is about recognizing your awesomeness, and then finding the courage to share it with the world. The things that make you "not normal" are precisely the same gifts the world desperately needs, so please do what you can this week to identify, embrace, and unleash your best you!

Peace!
Paul,
P.S.  Excuse me while I hibernate for a bit. I'm exhausted. :)
