There is so much to be thankful for this year. I don't even know where to begin. But if pressed, what immediately comes to mind is all of the traveling and moments spent with fantastic colleagues and students the past twelve months. If I could offer any advice, I would say TRAVEL, whenever, wherever, and as often as possible. Nothing comes close to the satisfaction, life-long memories, and personal growth that comes from going to and seeing other parts of the world. Regardless of all of the fear generated by the terror, environmental, and other tragic events that fill our news, I strongly encourage everyone to make a point of pushing themselves beyond their immediate surroundings and discover another part of the world. As I type this, I am also feeling tremendous gratitude for my health, and that of my family members. This was a year of multiple medical crises on the home front, and this has perhaps posed the biggest personal challenge of all. Thankfully, I am learning along with them the importance of not taking a healthy mind and body for granted. l I hope you too can take the precious time to reflect and share with family and friends this Thanksgiving.
