A HUGE thank you goes out to Katerina and to everyone who attended. We had a great selection of beer from Belgium, wine from the Pacific Northwest, and food from Peru. Talk about an international evening. Music was provided by the local phenomenon and mega-talented musician Jonathan Brinkley - thank you Jonathan.
A special thank you goes out to Deb who alerted me to a poem by Mother Teresa. So with that, I will end this Blog post with Mother Teresa's "Anyway" poem:
People are often unreasonable, illogical and self centered; Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway.
What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; Build anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; Give the world the best you've got anyway.
You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and your God; It was never between you and them anyway.
