A Lesson in Perseverance

May Day! May Day! We are all just getting used to living in a world without our public enemy number one. I don't know about you, but my expectation of our chances of finding Osama bin Laden were slim to none. Everybody knew he was hiding in a series of caves in the Pakistan desert where we would have almost no chance of tripping over him. I am glad the people who set out to find him did not assume like I did, and did not give up.

Of course our military performed exactly as we would expect and want in carrying out their mission. They are the best in the world! And I don't know about you but I am equally pleased that our intelligence workers were able to nail the exact location, even to which floor within the building. Great job, everyone who was involved!

And the timing had to be just right for all this to work out. This is a lesson in persevering that we should look up to. Focus. Plan. Execute. And never give up. Simple rules change your life.

Peace.
