I’m a dreamer,but I’m not the only one

peace childToday, LinkedIn let me know that my consulting practice Wise Giving is having its 14th “birthday.” This is the first time I have been alerted to the age of my practice and I am grateful for the opportunity to express my gratitude to the incredible people who have helped me throughout the years and the hard working dreamers I’ve had the privilege to meet. When all seems lost, I think of the individuals and nonprofits I have met through Wise Giving and their tireless efforts to make the world a kinder and more just place. I can think of no better way to honor my own small milestone than by standing publicly in solidarity with the Parents Circle Families Forum, an awe-inspiring group of more than 600 Israeli and Palestinian families, each of whom have lost a family member or loved one to the conflict, yet continue to work together in support of peace, reconciliation and tolerance. My thoughts are with them and with all of you who have welcomed me into your workplaces and hearts these past 14 years.
