So here we are:
A NEW YEAR.
Now I know
a lot of people around
the new year have spent
time making resolutions
to finding solutions to
those things that weren’t
quite so right last year.
A new year -
what better time
for a fresh start, right?
There are many reasons to bring this to you tonight.
Some old, some new, some recent, and those

Focus on the Prize,
not the price…
