ANNOUNCEMENTS: Convergence, Coffee, Happy Hour this week
COT: YHC read this passage from the book “From Strength to Strength”, regarding the “second half” of our adult years:

“It’s difficult to describe adequately the depth of the rewards that one enjoys when relationships become your “official” source of meaning and fulfillment. People compare it with finding buried treasure, with the only sadness being that it didn’t happen earlier in life.”

YHC has been trying to live this out, the past six months, and found it to be 100% true. This Easter weekend and thereafter, I encourage you to make relationships your official source of fulfillment; therein you will find treasure greater than any raise, promotion, or recognition you could receive at work.
