“Regardless of your circumstances, position, and station today, 2018 is a blank canvas waiting for you to create your picture. I hope each of us will use colors from the palettes of kindness, patience, inspiration, encouragement, and belief as we paint. Because when we encourage others to reach for their far edge of promise, we, in fact, become the best version of ourselves.”
Jason McNeal, a partner with the fundraising consulting firm Gonser Gerber, from “On Meaning in the New Year“
