Happy Birthday
There are those among us who lift us up, and give us the courage and will to persist against adversity even when the odds seem long. They make us glad to be here on this crusty old rock, and constantly point out and enhance its beauty and possibilities. They inspire us to do more, to be more. I am proud to say that my sons are such people. They reach, not for the next dollar, but for the next dream. And they have made many dreams come true.
One of my children has his birthday today. I will not mention his name, because many of you know him. He makes me feel as if tomorrow may indeed be a better day.
On this 29th day of January, grey and cold, I, with a warm and happy heart, wish you the best in this coming year, and many happy returns. If your dreams come true, we shall all know a better world.
Happy Birthday!
-Dad

I must thank you for the birthday wishes, father. Glad to see you’re adapting to the ways of the blogopshere. And thanks for everything: the upbringing, the seeds of intellectual capital and everything else.
As we say in the business,
Cheers.
