Born Wild

~

a gift of freedom for you daughter Jeni
though it’ll be one among many
hope this one stands apart
hope it revs your wild heart
and boundaries — you won’t have any

      1. Thank you Glenn on all counts! 🙂 Jennifer, her business moniker, is Director of Webinar Training for Fidelity Investments. She plays soccer, plays tennis semi-professionally, competes in pro-poker tournaments in Vegas — and unlike her father, is quite well established financially. She owns homes in San Francisco and Nashville. I’m a proud papa, but the credit for her success is definitely all hers.

    1. She’s a chip off the old block, as you have that born wild nature as well, Rob. My dad bought us kids mini-bikes when we were young and I thank him for it.

      1. I encouraged her participation as a youth Hank, even helped coach during grade school. I also supported her journey toward college — but the drive to succeed as she has beyond grade school was all hers.

      1. Thank you for your kind words Shay, they are genuinely appreciated. As I commented to Glenn, events in my life over the past several months leave me only two choices — despair or hope. I am choosing to sustain hope for as long as I can.
