ARE:A Renewal Enterprise

An End Of Year Factoid

The end of the year always brings lots of lists: 

• Person of the year 
• Top ten movies of the year 
• Top worst movies of the year! 
• Most livable cities 
• Etc. 

Daniel Pink does homage to a "facty-holiday" on his blog this month. He gets his info from "Uncle Sam's Almanac." And he helps make the case that the world is changing. Fast. 

As if we didn't know that.

'Tis The Season

Whatever your religious persuasion (or lack thereof) this is a season of wonderment, of dreams and goodwill toward all. It's a time of year that makes you want to be a better person, to pitch in for the sake of making the world a better place, to spend your life doing what matters.
