i was in a meeting with my Director in TST and all of a sudden, she got a phone call telling her that her 18 yr old son had just passed away. just like that, her life changed within a split second and nothing seemed to matter anymore.

i always thought of my boss as this strong, independent woman and to see her break down in front of strangers only reminded me how we are more alike than we are different.

To my family and friends: i know i don't say this as often as i should but...i love you and thank you for being in my life.
