Believe it or not, it was tough for me to begin this campaign as I try to make my own way to reach goals and not be a burden to others. Especially financially. But I realized that things may never line up perfectly or conveniently enough to provide a "Perfect Time" for me to pursue my goals. And so it begins with me swallowing my pride and asking for help in doing something I just can't do on my own. I am humbled and honored by the responses and encouragement I've received from family, friends, and co-workers concerning this endeavor. I appreciate you all. Now let's make it happen!
