A thought for your day, with my good wishes …

Rome wasn’t built in a day / Roma non uno die aedificata est

Doesn’t it seem it’s been a mere handful of days since we began this new year? I hope you close January on a terrific note, and approach February with patience and perseverance as you continue to work toward goals you’ve identified for this year.

International travel has long been among my goals, and I was in my forties before we began making some of these goals happen. We’d embarked on international family travel in 2006, and 2007 saw us in the UK and Europe, including time in Rome with our son and two of his friends. That visit was as part of a trip celebrating a special anniversary and the boys’ high school graduation.

Last April marked a return visit to Rome, in part to join International Management Assistant (IMA) partners and friends for an annual training event and social gatherings. A return visit to this splendid city was long overdue, and enjoying both familiar and new (to us) sights and experiences are among the benefits of return trips to any given locale.
