Brick Walls

Each year we have a quote at the top of the letter that goes home with the goals that you have set for the year. This year's quote is by Randy Paush, late professor at Carnegie Mellon.

"Brick walls are there for a reason. The brick walls are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to show how badly we want something."

I'd like to share with you his "Last Lecture." (Please be advised that there is some mild profanity.) I'm sure many, many of you have already watched it or seen parts of it. His lecture is available at http://download.srv.cs.cmu.edu/~pausch/. There are also abbreviated versions on YouTube. His lecture is all about having dreams and achieving them!
