Hey Everyone,
We are into our third month of the year 2001, does not seem like it should be here already but that is the strange thing about time. You see, time just continues to tick away. It does not complain, it does not care about you or I, time is always in continuing motion.
Now we as most folks do, can decide to sit by and watch time pass us by. We can sit and complain, tell others our worries, blame others for what we did not take the time to do ourselves, and so on.
What we need to do however, is take time by the horns, climb on and ride it for all we can. You see, if we are on the back of time instead of running in front of or behind the time, we can direct time to where we need and want it to go.
If we would only learn the age old solution to stop expecting others to do what we ourselves have chosen to only sit by and complain about and take the initiative to move forward and do what is right, we will control "our" time.
A long time ago in one of our first association meetings I mentioned time to you all. It was in the context of "you" the people of the Grant Park Neighborhood helping me to help you. That you all should learn how to do things for yourselves and to not depend on anyone including ME because one day my time with you all would come to and end.
Well, that time is here. I have been assigned a new area of town to work and will be transferring out starting March 26, 2001. I will be moving to the Busch Gardens area of town and working with the communities their. Now it is not to say you cannot call me or page if you really need something however, I would ask that you work with your new officer and do what you can on your own.
I will attend the March 20, 2001, Grant Park meeting and the new officer for your area will attend also. I would suggest that all of you who can attend need to do so in order to meet the new officer and to discuss on going and up coming issues that affect "your" community.
