I've Been Told....

"The Only Thing You Can Really Count On In This Life Is Change". The people I've heard this from were, of course, people from my "professional" life.

I've Been Told...

"It's not personal, it's just business" - also from those in my "professional" life. I've even heard myself say that one from time to time. Luckily, I've always been all too aware of the fact that even if it is "just business" it is very personal when you are the one affected. And, after 10 years, I am the one affected. Yes, my days at Grande are over.

I've Been Told...

"Some Things Never Change". I think the folks who use this one are normally referring to unpleasant things. For me, not the case. I have had an outpouring of love and support from my family and friends. Rarely a day that goes by that I fail to recognize how blessed I am to have Mark in my life BUT wow, oh wow, he has been a super star through this ordeal! I am so blessed - not only to have Mark but to have each and every one of the kind souls who have called "just to chat" or sent that email "just to say hi". These are people who throughout my life have supported me through the good times and the bad. So yes, it is true, some things never change. And for that I am thankful.
