Happy 2015!!!

It's a new year!  Happy new year to you and yours.

A lot happened in 2014.  Seva was born.  I spent three months at home on paternity leave.  I opened my own law practice.  Jeannie and I bought our first home.  Seva traveled internationally for the first time in her short life when we went to Colombia.

I'm thankful for all these changes, since they represent positive progress in my life: healthy challenges and proud milestones.  To begin a new year with the previous one being a good one is a great feeling.

So, what are my hopes and goals for 2015?

  • first and foremost, life, for which I thank God always
  • good health for my loved ones
  • to love others, most especially my wife Jeannie and my beautiful daughter Seva
  • to serve my clients to the best of my ability
  • to grow my law practice steadily and successfully
  • to enjoy our new home, from dinners with friends to hanging out in the back patio
  • to read lots of interesting, diverse, entertaining, and thought-provoking books
  • to travel internationally at least once
  • to see and spend time with friends who I haven't seen in a while
  • to forgive others of their trespasses against me and to forgive myself of past sins
  • to serve well and develop leadership skills in my two board of director positions
  • to develop my relationship with God, through prayer and attending church regularly
  • finally, to become a better man, in every role and relationship in my life
If you can, please say a prayer for me to accomplish these hopes and goals in 2015.  For my part, I wish you the very best for good health, love, and success in 2015.  May God bless you and your loved ones!
