Here we are the last How Am I Doin' Friday of 2017.
I imagine you are wondering how am I doing?
One could look back and say 2017 was yet another year of challenges. 
Deals went bad.
Promises were not kept.
Dreams went unfulfilled.
Weight was gained.
Failed strategies.
Money squandered.
Relationships strained and in some cases even torn apart. 
There were way too many funerals and countless numbers of setbacks.
In a word, it was a pretty normal year.
Every bad deal opened the door to a new opportunity.
Every broken promise led to new commitments.
For every unanswered dream there are as many new possibilities for the future.
My weight goes up and then I bring it back down....it's a cycle!
A failed strategy tests my resolve to find an alternate solution.
I am grateful to have had the resources to squander money and the opportunity to replace it.
There were babies born and new friends made.
It's all part of the circle of life.
(How Lion Kingish!)
So was 2017 a good year or a bad year?
Sounds like a pretty silly question.

It was a year, with 365 days.
365 opportunities to have a good day.
In the end,it comes down to 2 things, how I choose to show up and the attitude I bring with me when I do.
2017 
A really great year and a road that leads to many more .
Shabbat Shalom!
