The most meaningful kind of work isn’t about what you do.
It’s about who you lead.

Leadership shapes confidence, character, and dignity.

A pretty etymology to kick off the day: the 'daisy' takes its name from the Old English 'dæges ēage', 'day's eye', because the flower opens its petals at dawn and slowly closes its 'eye' again at dusk.

@ClaireHanna Great to see you!

The restoration of the Church will surely come from a sort of new monasticism...[which carries] the uncompromising attitude of a life lived according to the Sermon on the Mount in the following of Christ.
